Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
I don't think I showed these yet.
Hey! What's that yellow thing? Looks like a Chevelle but it's a pickup!

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
Everythung about it says "Lean Mean Street Machine"... "Pickup"
I like that they didn't feel they had to make it an SS to be something. Hey, how about a COPO Camino? That would be awesome. Give the "300" treatment in one of the lighter metallics Another Chrysler Ute... '52 Correction: That's labeled wrong. It's a GM... Holden. I thought it looked too cool to be a Chrysler . Looks like the same quarters as on the Chevy Utes of the time

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
in the eighties, there was an all original, one owner, 66, big block, four speed, sat in a storage unit north of here for years. The widow wanted $6,000 for it. I'm not sure why I don't own it.

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
Not sure why I never owned one. Always figured I would. It's not over yet.
Studebaker Coupe PU. A good one for truck or car discussion

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
Studebaker built cars and trucks. That is a '37 pickup truck. They called it the Coupe Express. And I've always wanted one.

I have 'always wanted' and 'wished I'da' lists so long I don't have enough time left to read them. This isn't on a list but is a really nice job

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
Shame, too, since that one has a bed.
Back to just plain ole El Caminos. Most people call these the big El Caminos. I guess this is an El Laguno

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
I like the mail truck too.
I remember my company (idiots) bought a couple of those mail type right hand drive Jeeps and of course I got stuck with driving one. That thing was a gutless mess. And squirrely as hell. I took it on the freeway once. I was going up a fairly steep grade and it was a windy day. I felt like I was taking my life in my hands. It was all over the road. And slower than cold molasses.

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
Ok, I'm a troll. I am specifically posting this picture to conjure up controversial truck or car conversation. It is definitely not a pickup!

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
I want a mail truck like that. Put killer A/C in that thing with a real comfortable interior, "The Lounge" style seating
I guess I should pop a picture up.

They said El Camino wasn't a popular concept...………………………..
