Before everyone started making custom El Caminos out of every possible vehicle with 4 wheels, there was a vehicle from General Motors called the El Camino. It was introduced in the 1959 model year two years after Ford introduced their Ranchero, and used the same “coupe utility” style. You could take your mom’s Tesla Model […]
If you follow DT, you’ll know that we enjoy finding random coupes, sedans, wagons that have been turned into El Caminos…because everybody loves an El Camino. But what happens when an El Camino owner wants a wagon? The prudent answer might be to sell the El Camino and El buy yourself a wagon…but not today. […]
We’ve featured a few Eldorado El Caminos in the past, but none with DIAMOND PLATE bedsides before. And as the ancient mariners used to say in their morning routine: Diamond plate plus El Camino will conquer the world. Let’s conquer something things. Find this 1976 Cadillac Eldorado offered for $17,750 make-offer or buy-it-now located in […]
From 1972 through 1997, you could get a tarted up Jaguar XJ6 sold as a Daimler and either a simple Sovereign name for the inline-6 or the lofty Double-Six name for the V12. It is a strange car to find out in the wild, but not quite as strange as this 6-wheeled Purple Thunder El […]
Yes. This is the kind of hero that the world needs. We don’t need the streets taken over by $100k cybertrucks or idiots in Mustangs…no…we need MOHR EL CAMINO!! Hey…sorry, we had to sack the previous writer of this article, because he seemed to be way to positive about a line-x covered (line-x is a […]
I love it when I’m proven right. It might take months, years or decades…but when I told everyone that the final state of all motorized vehicles is the El Camino they all laughed and me and said “Sir, this is a Wendy’s drive thru.” Well, who is laughing now? In case you don’t know, there […]
I know it might be cliche to post yet ANOTHER customized El Camino on DT…but here we are. This time someone took a Chrysler 300 SRT8 and turned it into an SRUT8 or 3l Caminoo? El Caminyess? Anway, the Dodge/Chrysler Charger/300 platform seems to be El Caminoized on a regular basis, probably because it is […]
Yes. The Subaru WRX STi was this fantastic rally machine that is sublime to drive on or off road. But how could you haul home the furniture you find on the side of the road. Or a side of beef. The trunk on the STi was small and the rear seats didn’t fold down (something […]
A wise man once told me that there is no bad way to create a custom El Camino from a Dodge and I have to agree. Something about Dodge’s ZeroFsGiven Styling (TM) that really lends itself to the sport mullet know as the El Camino. Business up front, party in the back. This next custom […]
GMC (formerly the Grabowsky Motor Company, then General Motors Truck Company, and later GMC Truck & Coach Division) is a specialty division of GM for trucks and utility vehicles. However, those trucks, vans, and SUVs have always been available as Chevrolets, Buicks, Olds…so is it a premium brand…sort of, although you can often get a […]
