Re: el-camino ever done?
I can recall one that was a 396 / manual trans way back in the late '60's. It tended to spin the tires more than others and liked to leave the line more sideways than most...
This was on 7" slicks and starting lines were asphalt....

ElCaminos actually work fairly well. Of course mine was a 283/PG so not a ton of torque. |
