Re: eBay '66 L78 El'Camino
Very nice ride, good color. Did you notice how the tail gate was in the down position for the vintage drag racing photo? Every little bit helps!!!!

Mythbusters killed that myth. At least mileage was better with the tailgate in the upward position because of the turbulence it created.

Maybe gate is down for weight transfer?
I need to see that episode of mythbusters as I surely thought more turbulence with gate up as evidenced by the whirlwinds moving light items about in the bed. When the gate is down, things seem to stay put. I am taking a 1200 mile trip soon and was planning on leaving my tailgate home!! Whats the facts here?
Oh, by the way, cool elCamino. My first Chevy was a '67
