Hey There! My name is Matty I live in the Sierra Mountains and my daily is an ‘85 ElCo with a fuel injected 383 Stroker, th700r Transmission, Headers, 10 Bolt 8.5”Posi Rear End, Complete UMI Stage 3.5 suspension upgrade wth a 1” drop.

I’ve replaced most everything inside and out just finished adding the SS MC steering box with a solid intermediary shaft too. Runs like a top but my problem now is that I’m having trouble finding seals to replace the ones on my recently acquired snug top camper shell. Anyone have any insight on what I can use and where to find it?

Thanks!

Welcome. Bad *ss looking Elco. Start a build thread and/or post some pictures. I'd like to see the camper and would like to find one for mine. This forum is very helpful but we like visuals!

Great looking Elk, welcome aboard! Sorry I have no leads on camper shell seals, but I second the vote for a build thread.

Welcome to the GbodyForum!
You have a pretty good start on a nice El Camino. I’m sure there is someone here that will be able to advise you on the bed topper seals.
Have you thought of making your own out of some rubber strips? Sometimes creativity is the best course of action.
