Mine is a Chevrolet El Camino,it's a car,it's a truck,you can fix it.
No,No!
I have a 67 Camaro and a 57 Bel Air.
Yea,sure.
I’m tellin’ ya, Andy Granatelli had it right...
“I’m going for the 1970 Z-28 RS with the LT1 350, Muncie M22 rock crusher, and the 4.10:1 “411 positraction” read end. Blue with the white stripes. “
I ordered and bought a ‘73 Z with blue/white stripes / white interior .
Huge lemon from day 1 . Picked it up and drove about a mile from the dealer when the Muncie linkage locked up . Had to drive slow back to the dealer in first gear . No mechanics there in the evening , had to do a temp. repair on my own . Salesman of course didn’t know squat . Had more trouble with the linkage and a dozen other things . Like I said , very sour lemon . Got rid of it within 6 months and never bought a GM product again .
I read that an hour ago and my head still hurts
70’s model Hemi ‘Cuda convertible with 426 cid.
Well done, but still needs AWD...
Hmmm, wondering if wife would kill him... A $2000 dollar car with a blown engine, as he looks at Craigslist and Copart....
I’ve seen alot of things done to El Caminos,but there are still a few good ones for cheap out there.
MY 1965 Pontiac GTO!
This is too hard.
BOSS Mustang. Pre-’69. ‘69+ too long and fat and not enough angles.
I had a 1992 Toyota MR2 turbo sw20 2.0L
weighed 2888 lbs. That car would go sideways as fast as it went straight
I also had a 1993 Toyota Land Cruiser
zero to 60 in about 3 days
That 1971 model is one sweet looking ride. What is the motor?
Red 1965 442 Olds Cutlass convertible. Hands down. Had one, Quick...not fast, but quick. At about 93 mph air would get under the hood and the front end would lift off of the suspension and the whole car would start to drift from lane to lane...so much so that it was enough to scare the ‘bwhozzits out of a 19 year old, without the sense of a garden slug. Ease the throttle back to 92 mph, and she’d settle right back down. Bring it back up, and she’d drift again. NEVER took it over 93mph...tried to, but it just scared me too much.
Off the line, NOTHING BEAT IT. NOTHING!
I could tell some tales, but nobody would believe them. Great car.
