my 85 El camino SS

[PSTA]

Whats good?! I am new here,but dig the site!! My grandpa bought this El Camino Brand new in 85 from the dealership off the showroom floor! it was suppose to be mine 4 years ago but pops needed it and i have been waiting for the last 4 years to get it! the car needs some work, but its complete, the body is straight, amd what needs to be replaced isnt gonna be hard. i plan on putting irocs on it(20-22") and upgrade the suspension and engine.
I fix up and own lowriders, but this is my 1st attempt to build a nice street "muscle" car! one thing i know, the paint will be WETT,and the chrome will be blinging when this car is done rolling on these Cali streets!
here are some pics. ill get more up soon. just wanna see what you guys think!

Starting with a nicer car makes for a nicer car with less hassle. Sounds like you already got some customizing experience, so you're mostly limited by how much time & money can go into it. Most of what you may want to know elco specific could be found out mostly between here & el camino central. Unless you're into labor intensive off 1 custom stuff, most of what you need can be bought these days.
Have fun with it & make grandpa proud.
