Moin Karsten,

Nice clean car. Welcome from north germany to this site. You´ll find a lot of helpful people here
Do want to allow the car as a classic car ? Then you don´t need emmission stickers
And you pay less tax
You can call me if you want. Then pm me..............
Gruß
Martin

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!
I've already learned a lot of stuff here that helps me get the right direction for my build.

Servus!
Plan A is vintage car (H-Kennzeichen) to avoid emission sticker, but that'll leave me with much less options concerning suspension/brake/wheel updates.
Plan B is truck registration, which is no problem with the El Camino. That'll be even cheaper in road tax and only little more insurance since it can still be insured as vintage truck (I've got a ingenius insurance broker for that).

Right now, I'm building the new engine (350 4-bolt bored .060) and get the car ready for inspections over the winter.
