Any 59 El Camino owners out there?

Hello all. I was just curious if there were any fellow 59 El camino owners on here that would like to share their photos? I'm just curious to see the variables of how 59's can look. Here's mine. if ya want to post a 60 elky or anything else that would be cool , too.

 

Nice car. Anyone have a rusting in the field Elky as well? Gasser style?

 

thanks! and good idea, even some sittin' in a field will do

 

Hey, wait a damn minute! FILLED gate and Impala tail lights??!?And a shaved emblem too?! No fair!

That really looks good

You already know there's 4 down here. I love em. Mine's a LOOONG way from sharing pics but I'll talk it up at the drop of a hat. PM me any time you wanna talk fins, dude!

The filled gate sure looks neat. Too bad it'd be more of a PITA than anything on a wagon or delivery.

 

really nice clean lookin car!

what is the drivetrain?

 

Flat black with red wheels thats a great idea. Just kidding ya nice elco as soon as I find a cheap elky donner there will be a 59 buick El Lasabro made.

 

I wonder where you got such a hunk of shit like that from....?? I just showed my brother and my dad what you did to that El Co..They were impressed as i was..That thing was a roach coach man!!

 

still driving it and it's waiting it's turn..............

 

That is nice. Keep up the good work.

 

I'm still lusting for a '59 El Camino so anyone who wants to off one can park it in my shop anytime. I'll take good care of it and might even pay you eventually.

I sold mine 13 years ago, I still miss it to this day. The most regretful thing I ever did. It had a 348 and a 4 speed, but it was tri-power truck. It was running a 4 bbl, but I had the tri-power and the air cleaner. I sold the whole thing for $1600. An air cleaner itself is worth that much. I can't even find a picture of my old truck, gawd I miss her.
I'm a fucking idiot, I wish I a '59 Elky again.
I've got a '60 Brookwood wagon that I drive everyday.
I'm gonna have another '59 one day, I like '60s, but '59s are the shit.

BTW, you've got a lovely truck, I dig it a lot.

 

Me thinks that you are just trying to piss RASHY off afterall he would give his first born for a 59 El Camino.

 

I've always wondered how a 59-60 Elcamino would look like chopped just enough to make coupe/ conv windshield fit. Anybody tried this?

 

It's backed by a 69 vette 427/w/350 turbo. Just ask Cadillacin Marcus. he knows all about it hehe.
i'll post pics of the engine bay soon.

 

here's one with the roof cut off.but like you said epinut,
a nice chop on the windsheild would be cooler.

 

man ...that dark blue elky is sweet and sits just right!

 

Damn I really want a '59.

I have a '65 now but I think I am going to have to move it on down the road so I can get me a '59.

 

love that el caminos -- this is mine - 60 of course

 

the yellow and baby blue 60 elks look cool along with the rest! I'd love to also own a 60.Thanks for sharing guys!

 

Here's my daily driver 60. Just moved all my crap into the new garage with it - might need to repaint the box now!

 

black 60 looks cool man! thanks for posting.

 

Heres my 59. It was my first car i got it when I was 13 and spent a lot of time on it getting it ready for the big 16th B-Day it kept me out of a lot of trouble. it is a 348 tri power car tube grille,shaved handles all the hood trim removed, hood eyebrows narrowed tailgate shaved. served as my daily driver for 11 years it is now in need of front Quarters and new paint and interior but thats what happens if you drive them. I havent even started the car for a year now I think Ill get it running a take a ride in it this weekend. you got me fired up on it again.

 

This is a bad pic but its the only two I have on my computer.

 

I had a 59 Elky years ago, I will try to dig up my one picture of it. Had a 283, powerglide and a face that only a mother could love. I sold it 15 years ago and regret it to this day. Hind sight is always 20 bucks or something. I have been kicking around the idea of trying to track down the bucket, but don't know where to begin. The DMV won't give me any info other than what I already have. Anybody with ideas on where to look?

 

her is acouple of pics from Sweden

 

hers another pic on the same 60s ElCamino

 

No problem Scoot! I'm a show off! Glad you like it. I'm afraid it's gonna have to be sold soon though. Sorry for the spam but it;s a Ca. car that's had a little rust in the floor fixed. It's got a pretty basic 350 with a Muncie 4 sp. and a new interior etc. If anyone's interested drop me a PM. It's in the want ad section here only.

 

You know, I think I saw yours in the Nov. Old Skool Rodz, & I was going to mail you some photos of a 1/25 I did last year.

Once again, only plastic, not the real deal.
