I've been building them for about 35 years. It's an addiction for me. I've built a little bit of everything. Camaros, Chevelles and El Caminos. I've got a 69' El Camino in the paint shop right now and should be ready by this weekend. Most of my builds are black, I really love black cars. But this El Camino is Wildcat blue with a wide white stripe on the hood. It has a 613 cu.in. engine, putting out a little over 925 horsepower on pump gas. I'll post a picture of it when I get it back from the paint shop.

I don't build as much now, I have pseudo arthrosis in my back and spinal stenosis also. I'm getting old. This 69' has taken almost 2 years to get done. It's been a complete frame off restoration and highly modified.

I absolutely love old cars, I would have one if I had the money. I look around the net for old muscle cars every so often, just love those old cars. Here lately I have even been looking at old trucks from the 50's and 60's.

The older trucks have made a huge comback in the last couple of years. Do you ever watch the Barrett-Jackson Auction when it's on? I go at least once a year to keep up with whats hot and whats not. There is a lot of builders that are doing older trucks and turning them into pro-mods.
