1980 El Camino Project

Hello GBody Forum! I traded a 97 Tracker Convertible for this car, and I am happy about it!

Chuck,
Welcome to the forum from Western New York!
El Camino looks real nice, think you got the better part of that deal.

The Tracker ran well and got 34 MPG vs the pesky 9 mpg she was getting and hard starts, dead batteries, etc so she is happy and so was I!

Thank you from Western Washington! I am happy with its condition overall...just needs a mechanics touches...lots and lots of little things...and of course the trashed interior!

Haha...the Tracker was great too. I got it on a trade for my basket case 63 Cutlass, so the Elco was essentially free.

Thank you! It was a surprise being from the NW that there was little rust anywhere...the frame is not really even rusted, so it is a nice project car for me as I have fixed rust before and it is impossible to erase, at least with my skills..
