George Johnson in Texas has a green one that he affectionately named "Kermit". He was the gentleman at SCR5 with the black COPO Camaro. Neat cars, but VERY traction limited!

Kevin,

Dan Carr put together a poster with production figures based on a statistical analysis. He lists 185 non-cowl LS-6 4 speeds, 159 cowl induction 4 speeds, 105 non-cowl autos, and 91 cowl induction autos. Total LS-6 Elcamino auto and 4 speed production was 540 using a pure statistical analysis.

Great looking truck and certainly rare.

Only Chevrolet can say for sure how many were actually built.I have seen 8 documented in the past,thats just me.But I have not been searching for these,so I don't know if that number has risen or fallen since.
I do collect a lot of Chevrolet Literature and Memorabilia,and I have seen Canadian books and catalogs and Zone letters refer to the 1970 LS-6 Elcamino much more frequently then the U.S. circulated literature.It stands to reason that when I did hear or see one of the LS-6 Elco's,it originated from Canada.
There was nice Forest Green LS-6 up there recently..

That was a nice one ! Can I have one to ?
There is a guy in Gothenburg (Sweden) who has one LS-6 Chevelle and one LS-6 El Camino. The real thing, I believe.
HeÄs dragracing a Corvette.
