Been a while since I posted up. Picked up a decent lil daily driver. 1987 El Camino Conquista. Pretty much all og except for the wheels, Flowmaster dual pipe setup and lil stereo. Been doin some work on it. Detailing, tunin up and stuff like that...Ordered some new light bezels and chrome grill(not in these pics tho) Swappin the front lights over to the Euro lights with a HID kit within the next month. Really cool car. I also have an 87 Monte SS(project car) and thought this would compliment it nicely. Keepin it Chevy. Wheels size and style isnt for everyone, but the car isnt built for everyone but me(and I love the wheel/tire and stance setup) Nuff talk..Here's the pics... "Tha Blue Carpet Treatmeant"..

Did a lil ghetto fab bed liner job. Herculiner from Autozone-$89.00

Taped her off and scrubbed the bed down

After the 2nd and final coat. Havent done the floor yet. Just laid my mat down for now. I'm adding a spare wheel in the back and wanted to drill the holes before laying the liner down..

Nice looking ride... I totally agree with your following statement. Some others need to remember this.

Wheels size and style isnt for everyone, but the car isnt built for everyone but me

super clean elco! 22's? them cali boys love them IROC's! did you spray on the herculiner or use the roller? we used the Duplicolor brand on the pickup at work, rolled it on, wasn't really happy with it's durability, seemed ok except on the baremetal spots, i used an abrasive brush attachment on a drill to scuff the bed up, but it did say apply over primed or bare metal??? looks like you didn't have any bare metal spots and i doubt that bed will see any abuse. Looks good, like what your doing always nice to start off with a clean car

Nice! That thing is clean as hell!

That's the same color combo that my '84 El Camino was...supposed to be.
It had been repainted in just the darker color before I bought it...
And yours is about 1000 times nicer... :lol:
