Hello Folks, this is my first post so a little background would be good.
My name is Mark, I'm in Worcestershire, England.
My El Camino is a '69 El Camino Custom in Butternut yellow. Originally a bucket seat, 4 speed truck it now has a T5 trans fitted, bare metal repaint and newish interior.
I use it to tow the 1966 Front Engine Dragster my wife and I own. Makes a great combination driving on the street.
The El camino has a350 small block with'69 'vette valve covers, inlet and tube headers. The cam is a little wild for towing so a change is due in the future.
I'd like to find a camper back to go on our truck as we seem to take more and more stuff to the Drags with us!! Smile

Ah ha, Mark from the old country eh? I left there for Australia a long long time ago but obviously still have a soft spot for England, but not the weather Laugh

Good to have you on board.
