Someone was asking about doing a clip and door swap on an El Camino this morning. I thought it would be interesting to start a thread showing some of Gen 5 El Camino front end swaps. I pulled some of the pictures from the customs gallery here and have some others I downloaded from other sites.
From firsthand experience it can be a good deal of work but it definitely makes for some interesting trucks and I applaud the work that people have done to make these one offs.
Anybody have anymore pictures?
As I recall this is one of the factory Choo Choo conversions.
And this is a Monte SS Conversions
My 78 Monte Clip swap
Some others
This one is a little over the top, but I like it (can’t afford the kit, but I do like it LOL)
