Default 67 El Camino

My other ride is a El Camino. It came first but will be done last. My Bonnie is my daily driver so gets proper attention soon. I would rather have a classic Bonnie but for now this will have to do.

I love the El Camino'*. And they seem to get rarer by the day. It looks like you have a new one!

Its a 67 which by any definition is actually quite rare. I usually seem to pick up bastard children when it comes to model years for cars and my other toys. My Goldwing was much the same a 1200 bastard year that had few to no accessories available. the 67'* are much the same. minor changes from 66 to 67 but enough that it becomes a unique year altogether and then in 68 they went to the larger body so, again bastard year...But with the underpinnings it has with the TPI 350, power chip, 2 1/2" flowmasters, cold air intake (Needs to be redone) and some other go fast stuff inside the engine it'* plenty fast and plenty mean sounding for me. Just need to get to work on it someday...
