59 ElCamino Roadster body, who has it?

About a year ago, I saw pictures of a 59 ElCamino's bedsides, and tailgate made into a Roadster body, Where'd it go, who has it? That thing was cool. Dean

 

Doesn't PLOWBOY have one made out of a 59-60 olds? I haven't seen the chevy one.

 

Yes he does. Dean

 

what. this thing????

 

Kool I don't have to post my own pics.

Last I heard Stoner has it (oddrod)

 

So many possibilities so little time, and money, and ..............

 

this is so kool i got a 60 IMP shell i am thinking bout doing same thing too

 

i think oddrod has that one?

 

neat idea, but I hope the rest of the car was thrashed before

 

I second that!

 

same hope here 60 i got is good for parts only

 

yep oddrod has it just waitin its turn at becoming the show rod it once was......a looong time ago.

 

That might be one of the koolest thing I ever seen...well there was that one time at band camp...nevermind

 

I dig it, it has a meanacing look to it. It reminds me of something you could have seen on the Munsters.

 

I want that body soooooooooooo bad.

 

Man that's it I'm going to junkyard before work tomorrow. I've got this lightbulb floating above my noggin that I can't seem to shake.

 

Killer Idea! just cause i dont know the story, did oddrod find this thing like that or did he do the cutting?

it was originaly build eons ago. it was up for sale a year or so ago. i damn near bought it myself. glad a HAMBer got it so we can all enjoy the progress pics when he gets around to reserecting it.

 

Thanks for filling me in. Way to cool. Seems every time someone comes up with a "new" idea, someone else uncovers it's already been done long ago.

 

That's the one. Now that I'm looking at it, it's not made from an ElCamino, or a wagon, it's made from a passenger car. The taillights are one piece, ElCaminos, and wagons, had two piece taillights. Thanks, Dean

 

was going to point out same thing thats it back ass of a car i have had plan to do this to my junked 60 IMP for like 10 years but this is going to get it started this weekend will cut ass off car & drag it home to start mad welder fun.........that pic kicks ass dude any chance you could draw up a 60 like that?

 

Yngrodder and I found about a half dozen 59 Impalas the other day at a guys place. Don't worry, I wasn't too interested it them. I'll let you have your fun, but don't drag your feet too long because when I need a new project I know where they are! Ha Ha Ha

 

I noticed that too but didn't want to sound like a FNG know it all smart ass.

Aaron,
I've been welding two volkswagon beetles together vertically to make a buttcheekmobile if you are interested. I can't get the thing to pass emissions here so I'd sell it cheap.

 

Man, that thing's cool. The guy I was apprenticing with back in '78 was building something similar from a '61 cats-eye Comet...

 

That thing is too damn cool...time to look for an old 59 to cut up....kinda got that "Mysterion" look going......

 

So where is it now and what has been done to it?

 

I can't see the picture but I think it's the same one Oddrod bought from Bill Rutledge [Moonman}here in Conroe. It was supposedly built in the 60's here in the Pasadena area. It changed hands probably 10 times over the last 10 years. No one would pull the trigger and build it. I saw an old picture of it when the guy in Pasadena[texas} had it.

 

Isn't this the one he was asking about?
