Default Protouring 69 El Camino
Just wanted to say "Hello" and hope to be able to contribute to this site. Am a long-term regular on the P-T Forum and have been building my 69 Elky for the last year and a half. When purchased,it was in prostreet guise so I started planning its transformation to a full protouring platform. Here's what it looked like when I started.


Here's where I'm at with it,now.

Welcome aboard.

I love your El Camino, it looks bad ass with that killer stance.

Clint, your Camino is very understated - there's a ton of trick parts lurking on it.
