Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
Smyth Performance is one who is building pkup conversion kits for all sorts of cars. There are others doing the same. I have seen late model Chargers, Audis, New Beetles and they look real good. I could see myself doing one for something a bit different.

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
My guess is : You find an El Camino with the bottom rotted away and save the top.

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
I absolutely love that second picture. Is that a Triumph Trident, or BSA Rocket 3? I never noticed the third pipe before. If so, that picture looks older than it is. Those 3cyls didn't come out till '68
Let's go camping!

Re: Pic Thread: Not Just El Caminos
That El GTO is too cool for school.
There used to be a guy in Pomona that had a couple of these Ed Camino's.
