While there are no dues or fees for membership at El Camino
Central, we do rely upon member contributions to keep the site and server running smoothly. As membership grows, so does
site usage. Recently we have seen a huge jump in server load and bandwidth. As a result, at times we notice extremely
slow page loading. Many of you may have also noticed the new member rankings used to recognize supporting members.

I don't think you will be able to get something different than everyone else. You could whip out a huge wad of cash and have some custom CNCed aluminum ones or custom TIG welded aluminum. For ones that I have seen less common are here and here. _________________ AWS & WABO Certified TIG and Fluxcore welder.

65 El Camino built 350, TH350, 10 bolt posi.
62 C10 283cid, 4B Q-Jet, Borg 3 speed manual, 8.5 4.10:1 10 bolt.
Cast aluminum covers like Brodix, Comp, and dart when powder coated black with polished letters look awesome. I also like the smooth type (check out speedwaymotors.com), but they'll need to be painted, chromed or polished. Then there's always fabricated covers too if you have the money. They can be pretty cool looking. _________________ -JOHN
