That El Camino is a restomod - updated engine, transmission, suspension, etc. - so I imagine having a hood that isn't 'correct' for the year wasn't a concern for the owner. It's a pretty sharp car.

Combined the cool 66 front with cool 67 bumps, I give AAA+++ very nice work.

SRR beat you to it (post #7057) but hey, it's worth a repost.

When he stops at school crossings, do children try to board?

Oh yeah, that shaker is offset.

I know the engine is slightly offset in the A bodies, assume this holds true for F bodies. But (if I'm not mistaken) the B bodies didn't need it. Not sure what kind of offsets the later Olds and Chevy shakers used, but this project was doomed...

Sorry for the miss fire. Surprised I missed it, this thread gives me a good laugh daily.

Those tranny cooler lines are interesting.

That 64 does look good in that combo. We have a 64 Cat convertible project car that is in about that shape. Has me thinking....
