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.

Went to the swap meet. Not a whole lot of stuff for El Caminos, however there was some interesting engine stuff. I was focused on new engine parts for a SB Chevy, but didn't find any deals. There were a couple of sets of roller rockers, but the price was the same a catalog prices. There were several tool vendors, and sheet metal vendors. I bought a 1/2 gallon bag of new Stanley sockets for $15. The sheet metal vendors are:
Auto Body Specialists Middlefield CT 860-346-4989
Classic Car Restoration Parts, Waterbury CT 800-420-0154
also
Big Butch's Auto Parts Ellington CT 860-870-9855
and also
Midstate Battery, Bloomfield, CT 800-243-0646
There was an Elky, early 80s for sale.
The weather was good, I got a sunburn on my arms and neck. _________________ If you want your car fixed the right way, do it yourself!

That's because I got there real early and bought it all.
You should have seen me stripping the turn signals, marker lights, grill, headlight bezels, and all the chrome trim off a 78 El Camino header panel with my Leatherman. _________________ Ernie
