Grant: " Jesus is the way."
Chevrolet's half car/half truck. Built in 1959 and 1960 on the Impala platform, then discontinued due to poor sales. Reborn in 1964, but this time built on the new mid-size Malibu/Chevelle platform. Production continued through the 1987 model year, but there were 420 units built during the first week of August 1987 that are designated as 1988 models. Rumors are circulating that Pontiac will bring the El Camino name back on yet another Holden design, the "Ute" (a-la Holden Monaro/Pontiac GTO).
If Pontiac does bring us back the El Camino, I will be one of the first in line to buy one. I can add it to my collection which currently consists of 1969 SS, 1984, and 1988 (yes 1988) models.
