  • We finally started restoration on the El Camino!!

    Can hardly wait till she's finished!! Color is changing drastically. Interior will be changing eventually, going to black. She will be making her first appearance with new paint on the Fall Colors Tour!!!

        Bob, it's gonna be a major change. The color is called "Amazing Aqua". I saw it on a '60's model Chevy Deuce on the Power Tour and fell in love with it! It's kind of a peacock blue color.

                  Terri... Craftec makes a really neat cover. That's where I got mine for Blue Streak.

                    Terri, I'm with Jim, you sure know how to get the job done..You are moving right along.. Now if Greg can get that Torino done that fast we could get rid of that thread that seems to go on forever..
                    I just love my Hot Rods.

                    Long Hauled 2009,2010,2011,2012 and 2013. Loved every minute of it.

                      Great news Terri can't wait to see it, that color should be a real eye catcher.

                            Aqua was the original color of my '63 Nova SS.
