wanted...post pics of "KOOL" 1960 elcaminos...

Very cool...Anyone notice the ghost flames?

 

Notice also one piece bumpers, and if I remember correct those aeroplanes from rear fenders are handmade (cast aluminium?!).

 

here is another pic. of that fine el co.

 

I love this pic.!

taken on the way up to Primer Nats....

 

sweet pics

 

Even though yellow is my least favorite color, I'm also a huge fan of that '60. I snapped this one at Paso this year.

 

Friend sent me this pic, no idea where it was taken but think its cool!

 

Saw this one lurking in the pits at CHRR last month....The colors like an orangey/red pearl, real nice looking...

 

Thats bad

 

Sledish, that El Camino is from Japan here's another pic..

 

first i gotta say that i love that elc from japan, those guys turn out some very interesting customs.

hope these pics work (if not ill edit the post and try again)

these are just some that i saved to my computer:

 

some more:

 

man,,i started this thread over a year ago and its still going,,which is good,,cuz that '60 i found is still sitting in the same spot.

 

Hmm, I can't get the links to show up as pictures. The car belongs to Docfranknstein here on the HAMB.

 

The black '59 with the scallops posted by tylerdurben is a 3D computer rendering I did. Others like it can be seen here http://www.xframechevy.com/index.asp?L=300.

 

That "Elky" from Japan used to be a four door, maybe even a wagon if my mind serves me correct. Pretty neat...

 

my winter beater i had last winter... still kicking my self for selling it

 

all joking aside, there are some pretty bad ass cars in this thread. I always wanted to build a chopped and slammed 59-60 with a persian rug for a bed cover and interior carpets and candy gold paint and a magic lamp shifter knob (kind of an Aladdin theme). It would be called "the flying Karpet". Maybe ill have to do one for the model thread or friday art show.

 

Now thats bad ass. Killer car.

 

thats amazing! i cant remember where i found that pic, i think google.

 

I can't remember how old but a few (5+) years ago Custom Rodder featured a WILD ElCo form the midwest (witchita?) that was fully customized, flat purple with gloss scallops. anybody remember or have pics?
it was one of the coolest El Caminos I had ever seen...

 

here's the one I was talking about:

the bed on it is whats really cool though. i liked it better in suede (like the magazine) too...

 

saw this elco at Pomona Swap meet this morning, slimer green!!!

 

Wish I still had this one. Sorry for the crappy pics of pics, no scanner.

 

What a great old thread! Got to love 1st gen Elc's. They even made their way down under to Australia. This example is owned by a mate of mine that recently passed away, I am in the process of trying to buy it from his folks, got to make sure the old girl is looked after!

 

mine.....

 

Do you have flatops roof and rear glass on it?

 

That is the baddest elcamino I have seen. Does anyone have more pictures of this car!!!!

 

for theone:
several years worth of shots of this car- it is from Japan
