El Camino

[mattj]

I want to and have always wanted to lower and slam an El Camino. I've seen the custom bikes some of "those guys" make too and am tempted to give it a try. I'm not sure why this compels me. It just does.

I'm partial to old Ranchero trucks (El Caminos came out 2 years later based on the popularity of the Ranchero). My dad and I shared 3 of them when I was in high school, he always had one on the farm from the time I was little. Dad and I talk all the time about how we shouldn't of sold those. I'm on the lookout for one to restore (pre '65) with my boys and my dad - but it's gotta have the '3 in the tree'.


***yes, I'm a girl who enjoys hanging out under the hood of old cars/trucks.

Too bad you don't live closer! You could probably teach me a few things.

I checked craigslist and can get a project car for like $600. I'm getting excited!

I have recently learned that 'el camino' means 'the journey' in Spanish. Not sure what that has to do with anything, but there it is....

We were at a show & shine on Friday night, and saw a big block '67 Super Sport El Camino. Black on black, four speed, dropped spindles with black ralley wheels. Totally. Awesome.

Get after it!

There's a 1980 or so El Camino for sale in a front yard about a half mile from my house in Maryland. Second one I've seen in a month, and this is not a good area at all for domestic muscle cars.

I've always believed the El Camino is the car version of the mullet...half business, half party! :) Go for it!

El Journada is the journey. El camino is path or road

No Va is no go, those didn't sell well in spanish speaking countries
