okay-----they quit making 'em after 1987. So yeah----they are most definitely a classic car. So anyway---here's one I have. It doesn't run, and needs everything. But, it's worth it. Yup. (see photo)

One of my high school pal's uncle had one with some sort of huge hemi V-8. Don't know if that was stock, but it sort reached a sweet spot around 90 mph.

My brillliant builder/entrepreneur uncle always had El Caminos. He always went for the practical things. I can still picture them in my head.

I feel irresponsibly nostalgic about El Caminos. Back in the early 70's I was home on leave and my best friend had a black 1970 SS 396 version. We spent the better part of a week running around our old haunts with an oversized cooler filled with Miller Ponys (7 oz bottles) in the back which we refilled frequently. Luckily we did no damage and were not injured or arrested so it's a fond memory with that black El Camino as a major player.

I know nothing about how cars work, but have always like the look of El Caminos. Growing up, my then 3yo brother became fascinated with cars and learned to spot all the different ones by their designs. Somehow I absorbed that visual knowledge too and can name all the 60s and 70s cars one still sees now and then.

Bobby: I cannot see your photo attachment. I think El Caminos are pretty cool, but more so if they are operational.
