Its always hard seeing a car go... But now you have some extra cash. Thats good

 

Why'd you ditch it?

 

That sure was one nice car, but yea why did you get rid of it?

 

well with out getting long winded, im a college student inbetween schools and working full time. so i have limited space, time, money and resources needed to keep up a car like that. most of the cash is going back into the camry to get it in a condition to get through 2 years without any major problems. so its not all bad, more stuff for the camry:lol:

 

:sosad: :disappoin I hope the people u sold it to, love it as much as u have and do!!

I feel for ya Bro!!

 

BUY IT BACK *tear*

 

Maybe it's just me but if they aren't going to tow it with a full trailer, which isn't that expensive to rent. Isn't it a smart idea to tow it from the back rather than from the front which will be towing it on the drive wheels?

 

Aw man that must hurt but you gotta do what you gotta do.

 

yea that towing doesnt seem right ? :dunno:

 

well I was always taught you try to avoid towing a vehicle with it's drive wheels on the pavement, harder on the drive terrain... Hence rwd trucks and cars being towed with the rear wheels and fwd wit the front. But like I said, if I was them I would have spend the 70 - 100 and rented the full trailer like my uncle and I did to get the sonoma to my house

 

sorry bout your misery...i guess its for the best not for the worst

 

I'm mot saying this will help but, I lost my pride and joy in a car accident. At least you can see it again and it won't be in pieces.

 

Aww ... look at it this way, you just shared your pride and joy to another person

 

I rather have the El Camino than El Camry. :lol: But that's just me.. :dunno:

 

sorry to see it go, looked really clean... my dad had 3 el caminos and a ranchero at different times back in the day, Id love to get one someday...

 

Don't worry about it man, life goes on. You'll see.

 

Build another

 

oh i will, like i said, theres somthing u get with a muscle car that no other car can give ya, even though it handles like a bag of sand witha rocket on it.:lol: . yeah i was kinda sketch about the way they were towing too. but its ok, they guy is planning on replacing the tranny and rear end anyways so he didnt really care, plus they didnt have a steering lock avalible. thanks for the support

 

For the guys that don't know... That is a towing dolly....


Back on topic, That is a sexy El Cam!!! Too bad you sold it, why?

Yeah I am thinking of fixing the 79 firebird we have to see what it's like to drive it, but I've heard they handle pretty well, low... only 3500 lbs.

 

do it, ull never regret it. everyone admires muscle cars(cept ricers) and if u can get one to handel halfway descent u got a winning combo. my next muscle car will be a 67-69 camaro, they make really good track cars...for a muscle car that is, same with the firebird.

 

I'd love to find a nice restored Dodge Challenger T/A...but a 340 would do...gotta win the lotto tho!

 

I'm big into the orginal mustangs, 69 year

I like the old camaro's too. Nice thing about my firebird is from 1970 - 1981 I can use any front end and tail lights to make any firebird or camaro from those years lol

 

Man that is sad, but at least you got a wad of paper to put a rocket engine in your camry!!

I would love to get myself a decently kept 1965 impala coupe, SS or not.

I fell in love with that car when Chip Foose did one

 

Sorry to see it go. Having done the same thing as you, building a classic muscle car as a kid, I know exactly what you mean about the feeling you get. It's like no one or nothing can touch you...yet you don't feel like you have to prove it. It's like a weird form of confidence. Oh well, once you get bit, you never lose it! We both know that before too long you will end up with another, even nicer project! By the way, that is a CLEAN El Camino. I'm not usually a fan of El Caminos, but that one is SICK. That black looks amazing. Hats off to you on your work. That person got a winner of a car.
