1970 El Camino LS6 4-speed

[olredalert]

----There is an Australian guy I have met who owns several 70 LS6 El Caminos. He also has a place in Wisconsin, and I believe he spends, or at least did spend time both in Wisc. and Australia. Nice guy! Hes a close buddy of an old Corvette friend of mine......Bill S

I sold it to Bill Lippay, Joes buyer. Never knew he had it on display though. The same black on black 69 was at MCACN a couple of years ago. I sold it to Joe for $5500. Did I do OK??? He was, of course, much more interested in 57 Chebbies and had many, many beautiful ones......Bill S </div></div>

Wayne talked about that multiple times in the past (don't know why I was under the impression it was a 70) But I remember the aluminum heads clearly. He said it was on display in a reception area. Mike has a 375 66 El Camino with a POP and it's a bucket seat/console car. Never had seen that on a non-SS El before.

----Wow!!! That 66 would be another extremely rare El Camino......Bill S

Big motor in a truck, no insurance problems. Big motor in a SS Chevelle, big insurance payment.

And they could deduct it as a farm expense. Win, win. </div></div>

Some very smart thinking here! Love reading stuff like this. Kinda like the Yenko Deuce Novas LT-1's being insured as just a 350 Nova.

Hey.Maybe it's the same one from Two Lane Blacktop.

There is a guy in Gothenburg Sweden who has one LS-6 El Camino and one LS-6 Chevelle. He´s had them for many years.

If you interested in this car it might be worth checking with him to see if it was the same car for more details. I just can not imagine many of them around.

We did sell an authentic Black on Black all original drivetrain LS6 El Camino with 4.10s.

It ended up in a collection in Florida..........so could be the same LS6.

I believe that is Stefano's old car.

I have heard about a few more over here.

I remember one of the very first Swedish magazines I bought and they had a story of a GMC El Camino (Don't remember if they were called El Camino) that a dragracer had imported. It had a 454 and it was impressive, could lay down 1000ft of rubber on the street [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]

Anders it is in Colorod No3!
