This car was built with long term investment in mind. Nothing has been altered to permanently affect the cars integrity or originality. Nothing was cut or welded. The car could easily be put back to stock later on down the road if someone wanted to do so.

The car was in Arizona, where it had been most of its life. This was a super solid car to start with and was one of the best unrestored El Caminos I had ever seen.

The inside of the bed is beautiful. Lots and Lots of hours went into just the bed alone.

The entire engine compartment was finished with great detail. The firewall is painted body color, as is the underside of the hood. As you can see everything was painted apart.
