I kinda like the t-top concept. Always wanted to see what it would look like on an Elco. But the t-top is a little "skinny".....wish I could see the glass tops.

8) Definatly different! You would think as much was spent on paint and body mods he could have sprung for a nicer set of wheels. Looked at it a little too long....getting nauseous.........

What this car looks like would take more room than this site can store.

If that car gets on the road it will make all FORDS look good including the Ranchero.

That car could only look good driving back wards through a tanker truck of rat rod primer YUK YUK YUK

This could go on for every

Did anyone notice that the center console looks like Cartman's butt? 8O

I'll reserve my comments on the paint job as I too am feelinga little queezy, but it was nice to see a t-top conversion. I agree though, they appear to skinny.

Looks like the repair "person" got stuck fixing something under the dash and just got "finished" in.

Too wild for my taste.

Everyone in here has something done to their car that not everybody likes. At least it still looks like an el camino instead of a big whale or chicken.

Don't take is personally that someone might voice an opinion that differs from yours as that is the purpose of these "forums", to express opinions and ideas.

My Elky is still "butt ugly" and that one is simply "too wild" for my taste as I prefer a more conservative automobile. I don't know if you like it or not but if you do, that's fine by me.

Are you talking to me? It's not my car, I'm not taking anything personally. lol I don't care if it's "too wild" for you or not, I didn't even read what you had posted until just now. :?

honestly, i think the chic-camino looks better than this horrid abomination, but still better than the whale. I threw up a little bit in my mouth when the picture loaded. I don't like the t-top but perhaps because it wasn't done quite right?

The paint would be acceptable if he hadn't done the bed/frame in yellow...that and the lettering graphics aren't doing it any favors. The t-tops are somewhat cool, but I'd never have a dash that looks like it belongs in Fred Flintstone's ride...not to mention the butt console...TOO wierd!

Yeah, the center console is the only azz he'll be getting in that thing. :P Nah, it's not THAT bad...ok, well, maybe it is. But, I do like the paint for the most part. The yellow bed has to go. This is from outside of the US (Austria or where ever), so you can't expect the whole world to respect the Elky the way we do...most of us anyway. :lookround:

I'll give the guy kudos for expressing himself, but are you guys sure that is azz and not cow udders?

That is a birth control car, no way he will ever get any in that thing.

It is good to see something different. I am guilty of having a very stock looking Caballero. I say good for that guy for going against the norm. Same is boring, the uniqueness is what drew me to El Caminos/Caballeros anyways. Later-Matt

Oh come on, give the guy a break! It's good to get young guys interested in custom cars- they are the future of the hobby. After all this is an El Camino site not a 1st gen Camaro site!

That is just too much for my eyes to take in all at once...If i saw this in person I'm sure I'd fall to the ground in a fit of spasms
