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.

My guess is : You find an El Camino with the bottom rotted away and save the top.

Nice car! That's how I see it, an El Camino with a Charger stuck on the bottom :O

This calls for some actual El Camino pictures

**davischevy** · 02-09-2021, 11:11 AM

69 is my favorite year.

**Boog** · 02-09-2021, 04:08 PM

69 & 70 for me.

**3757chevy** · 02-10-2021, 02:22 AM

'67 is all I ever owned. I'd like one of every body change. 59-60 , 64-65 , 66-67 , 68-69 , 70-72 , 73-77 , and 78-87 That's only 7

Me too! Always been a dream. I'm sure glad they stopped making them. Seven is enough!

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!

**FleetsidePaul** · 02-11-2021, 06:15 PM

1948 kinda sorta El Camino.

**special-K** · 02-12-2021, 07:03 AM

The Australians really get the whole El Camino thing, car that's a truck thing, way better than us Yanks

**3757chevy** · 06-12-2022, 08:58 PM

This very well done LS powered GTOmino was a winner at the Canon Car Club Show on Saturday.

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.

I resemble that remark.

I'd cruise in this in a hot second. I love Cadillac's.
