Just got a 77 El Camino, which I started working on. Already got the electronics working just stuck on the speedometer. I needs body work. but other than that I like.

Well here are my plans for this car I want to get a 74 face, with the single-circular head lights, I want a Hemi scoop on the hood and I want to make it a removable top and put a hard top on the bed. I'm keeping the original rims since I've heard that they are probably the most expensive part of this car. Correct me if I'm wrong on that last statement.

looks like a good start!! welcome to NECOA/ECC!

If your going with the Original look those rims are correct. As far as expensive, probably not unless your having to actually purchase them. I have like three sets of various year correct Rims sets or partial sets. Basically a junk yard will take them but you can't sell them unless you find someone who is restoring an old Malibu or Elky.

My 76 came with Turbine Type Rims from the dealer. My Brother in law now has those on a trailer.

Good that you found us! Again Welcome to ECC / NECOA!

I was told that the rims I have are the Rally rims, is this correct? I also was told that these are the same rims they use to use for the old corvettes.

Here's another good pic...
