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.

1280 is a V8 ElCamino (sedan-pickup)
1180 would be a six cylinder
Keep in mind---2-tone paints were not all that common on 59/60
Most (but not all) of these Elkies had the grey interior.
Mine came with a blue int. and the deluxe group
passenger visor and armrests, Fender ornaments, dual mirrors, Impala trim.
Also had--grille guard, Dealer AC, (both in shed now)
