Just joined the other day and saying hi.
Found this 1974 SS in some back lot and I could not resist. Had to have it.
The car seems like a project that someone started and then abandoned.
Got all the Edelbrook goodies, dual exhaust etc. Suspension work is done. Needs new interior and paint. Has Centerline wheels. Drives like a dream. 350 motor but very fast.
Ordered all the parts I need and it should be ready in about a month.
Cool I will post pix when it is done.

Laters

G'day and welcome to ECC Gerhard. Sound like a "gem" you have got yourself there.

Are you going to run a "book" on when you finish your El Camino? One month eh? Poke Tounge You must know what you are doing, unlike me when I started Laugh
