I have been a member of this forum for a short 3 months and I can see there is quite an eclectic mix of members. That has gotten me wondering what it is about the El Camino that draws people to it, so I have decide to conduct an informal poll. I don’t want to limit people’s responses to my preconceived notions so the questions are open ended.
I would like as many willing members as possible to respond and answer three basic questions in any manner they choose. I will try to glean the kernel of information I am looking for from the response. If you have more than one car, just answer the questions multiple times if you have different reasons for owning them.
The three bits of information I am most interested in are …
1) What generation of El Camino do you own
2) Why do you have that generation and not one of the others
3) What are your (realistic) future plans for the vehicle
When the responses trickle off to near nothing, I will crunch the data and see if any interesting trends emerge. If anyone else is interested I will post the results back to the thread.
And before anybody else says it … yes, I know that I need to get out more. :???:
I will start …
I own a third gen because that is the body style that appeals to me the most. Specifically the ’68 & ’69 model years. I would have taken a second gen or fifth gen after the quad headlights appeared, but I really like the third generation the best.
What I want to do with the car is make it into a high-end driver or a low-end show car, depending on your point of view.
From the above response I can divine a couple of things. The first is that obviously I own a third generation El Camino. I have that one because I like it better than other years and I am most interested in building the car for its looks/appearance.
Thanks in advance for helping satisfy my curiosity.
