Yeah, these guys are well known among El Camino aficionados. They ask new car prices for used cars.

Phillip Swartz owns it. I found him to be a nice guy. Not your typical car lot, he keeps them in a temperature controlled warehouse and they are the way he describes him - nice, great condition and absolutely no rust.

No, I don't sell for him, but I did buy my most recent Camino from him. And I'll tell you a little secret if you don't tell. He came off the price - a lot. Nice Camino's in my area cost almost twice what I paid to him and the fact is I haven't seen one as nice without it being frame-off restored.

Likely if you just want just a plain ole used cruck, he's not your guy. But, if you really want a very nice stock one, I'd at least drop by if you can. You won't see a collection of better examples except at a car show. At least that has been my experience.

Take care.

I've got nothing but good things to say about Phil and Barbara Swartz who run Bethany Kars. I met them both while I was in OK city. If you want to buy an above average El Camino, Bethany Kars is the place to go. Pricey? Yes, but you get what you pay for.
