----I did want a 69, Verne, but this 67 (I had a 67 SS new) really talked to me. It has more options on the original build sheet than any 67 El Camino I have ever seen. Factory AC, tilt, PW, buckets w/headrests, console, deluxe belts, 325/396, st +brks, gauges, disc brakes, HD susp, bumper guards, remote control mirror (not on the car at present) Its a Cal. car and lived with the original owner until 2010. I have a stack of bills an inch high. Plus, I bought it from Jacquie Benthin so I was pretty sure what I was getting. Its a relative high miler so there are things to correct, but nothing major at all. I got the vintage American wheels from Jason in Cal. and spent about two days detailing them. The car came with new style chromed Americans and huge tires and just didn't look right. Id still by the right 69 as that's what the wife likes, but so far I'm having fun with this 67.......Bill S

Re: ----WTB 69 El Camino----
 

WOW. Schwing. That's a beauty.

Re: ----WTB 69 El Camino----
 

----Thanks so much for the pics, Verne! Much appreciated.

----Forgot to mention that I also have a build sheet and original sales papers from a dealer in Torrance......Bill S

Re: ----WTB 69 El Camino----
 

Wow. Nice score. Went earlier than 69 I see. I personally like the 66-67 body style even better, even though I have a 68.

Re: ----WTB 69 El Camino----
 

----Some stuff being updated already and other stuff coming up. Gardner exhaust ordered and on the way as I cant stand the pea-shooters out the back. Don't want to take any underhood shots yet. Too much stuff replaced over the years with the mileage figure. Not worked up about repro this time. Just trying to get stuff reasonably correct and drive the poo out of it......Bill S

Re: ----WTB 69 El Camino----
 

Wow, very nice Bill. Those are the wheels you restored? Want to restore another set? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Sweet car and wheels!

Re: ----WTB 69 El Camino----
 

Looks great Bill!

Re: ----WTB 69 El Camino----
 

Nice pick up...

Purely for education, is the SS emblem correct? I thought the Super Sport was not an option in the El Camino but the big block was? But I maybe incorrect Thanks

Re: ----WTB 69 El Camino----
 

----The SS emblem was added by the original owner. I just haven't removed it yet. Part of the reason I liked this El Camino was the fact that no one installed an SS hood. Every one you see on E-bay, weather small or big block, seems to have been changed. The SS hood is cool, of course, just not original......Bill S
