This is always the balancing act.... Not everyone can run Forgelines... so sometimes you have to get something you can afford that is "similar" in looks etc.


All too often on here I see people spending oodles of money on stuff most of us know dang well will never get used as it's intended. Buying lightweight race wheels for a street car that will never be on a track --- kinda never made much sense to me.... Kinda reminds me of where I live in Bellevue --- watching these giant jacked up 4 wheel drive trucks with every off road attachment they can buy -- to park at the mall.... I understand the "look" --- just don't understand not actually using what it is you wasted the money on. But that's just me I guess.


Love your El Camino.... always have liked those (had a '69 396 SS back about 1972).... it was useless and I loved it. HAHAHAHAHA
