Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
It wasn't a truck! No, seriously, this settles it once and for all... except those so rigid in their thinking they prefer ignorance to enlightenment. I know, OUCH! But really, who wants to argue forever? In that vid the guy called it a "pickup". That is what El Caminos are. They are absofarkinlutely pickups. Stupid argument is truck vs car. Hang up that meaningless eternal crap. A C/10 is "pickup truck", a C/60 is a "truck", an El Camino is unmistakably a "pickup". You can say it's a car if you have to because it's a Chevelle. Can't deny that. There was a Chevelle 2dr & 4dr sedan, 2dr sports coupe, Convertible, station wagon, and pickup. A convertible isn't a sedan, a sedan isn't a station wagon, a station wagon isn't a sports coupe, none are pickups except the El Camino. That's why they were made. Chevy already made all the above before 1964, then they added a pickup to the new mid-size line. In '59 there was only full-size... a term that didn't exist till the Chevy II. In 1959 a new concept was born in Chevy's line up. It's GM's light duty pickup. That's all
