WTB Chevrolet El Camino Some of you may know, some you may not know, most you probably dont care, but this is what I spent most of my 2005 doing, drifting an el camino in formula d. yah it was kinda dumb, and a crappy car but it was fun. Anyways thanks to XAT Racing I now get paychecks for working, and they allow me to keep drifting. I sold some stuff and created a budget and am looking to bring back drift racing and el caminos. If you know someone, or you know of an elco for sale, that meets my criteria, please email mikespeed95@gmail.com .
What im looking for
G Body platform elco, 79-86, preferably the later model with the 4 headlights.
LITTLE TO NO RUST!!!
straightish body, dont mind a little rough.
all the interior
all the trim
all the wiring.
complete car. a/c, powersteering, interior, trim peices, glass, suspension, rearend, all that crap. running/driving car that could be a daily driver if you have a poster of dale earnhardt in your house and your self employed by a company that requires you to take a plunger to work every day.
things i dont mind that are bad to most people.
blown engine.
blown tranny.
crappy paint, as long as no rust.
v6
what am i doing?
making one of these

I figure I've got the dumbass behind the wheel, I've got the resources right now to put what is essentially an iron block ls1 (vortec truck engine) into it with a blower, similar wheels, same paint, and have some fun with it at local events, and drive it around on the street, while still having the utility of my truck, and the ability of ls1 240 to do burnouts and stuff. and bringing back something that everyone always asks me where it went and when its coming back. now i can simply say, its at the shop or in my driveway.
anyways
im trying to keep purchase car of the vehicle under 1500, but will spend up to 2k if its the right car. i have money set aside for the motorbuild for this car, and while it would be easier to spend more im currently moving and some other crap that costs money as well.
if you know of anything that might help me out, email me at mikespeed95@gmail.com
if not, oh well.
holler at your boy.
mullet power.
