  • Our friend Memo dropped by with his very cool old school 65 El Camino done Memo style. He wanted to keep it close to original stuff with an upgrade motor, paint and a few other things but this is simply old school cool.
    Enjoy the ride...

    I had a 65 El Camino in high school in the late 80's. That was a fun car. Had a 327 with a powerglide, and yes it had the floor shifter and the Chevelle center console, and Chevelle low back bucket seats. I did upgrade it to power steering, but it was drums all around.

Had it till 76 it was a gear head’s delight all sorts of LDS rear ends and other stuff was available like Hurst shifter how fun was that to chirp the tires in all 4 gears I always had a hot blonde next to me and gave me a reason to put it in 4th
