My 60 Elcamino turned fenderless hot rod

I have a 59 ElCamino and could say:"Are You nuts, how could You do that to an old classic?".
But I dont, because I like, what You did.....)))

 

thats definitly outside the box , i love it !

 

now, THATS an ugly car.
I know, i know.....so what if you dont agree

 

I've been working on some " behind the sences stuff " lately, this is the no glory work but has gotta be done, like the floor and rear end , here are a couple pix of what's happening out back, I'm instaling air bags from a late Ford, that way I can have adjustalbity. Von Doc

 

Cool! Thanks for the update.-MIKE

 

I'm not too sure 'bout that front end, sorry....
But I love the rest!!!!!

Caminos always rule, even when they are not that radical!

 

I'd be happy to see a progress report/update on this one, Doc!!

 

I dig the car, I dont like the nose, but damn sure give major respect for the undertaking of this project. It looks wicked

 

Great to see an update, I love this build!!!!!

 

too cool man.

 

crazy wack funky!

 

You need to be carefull to keep the body lines all running together,A Bubble Top would be Awesome!!!!!!

 

Hey Doc when will the next bacth of parts be ready for the chrome shop ?

 

gee!,and i thought the rusty 60' elcamino i have was destined for the grinder. mmm!

 

you do know that tHey make a Hot Wheels car (I WILL TRY TO GET IT FROM THE GRAND KIDS )that is very close to your plan ..

 

Keep it up...this thing is cool!!!! Screw that bubble top idea....Do what yer doing cause it lookin bitchin so far!!! Keep the updates comin!!!!!

 

it took some diggin in the toybox while the grandkids were nappin but i found and took this pic of there "JESTER' HOT WHEELS from 2001...

 

Front needs more of a horizontal style to it. Looks too chunky for the rest of the car. Just my opinion. I love the rest of it.

That car looks great! How's it coming along?

 

Well guys My rearend is back from the chrome shop ( thank You Big Ronster) looks like this, (see photo) .oh and it's still covered in the plastic it was wraped in by the chrome shop, I'm waiting to remove that till We paint the car. I also cut the 1st windsheild for the Needle only to find out that I have a passenger car windshield and I need a station wagon or elky one, I'm now thinking of making a plexy one so We won't have a seam down the middle. Von Doc

 

Doc you are very welcome Big Ronster keep up the work @ thank you for helping me on my car

 

Are there pix on the HAMB for the 57 Ford bed truck? I'd also like to see some. Gary

 

Wagon and El Camino would use the same windshield as any of the non-hardtop sedans, '59-60 Chevy/Buick/Poncho/Olds. The hardtop windshields are shorter top to bottom.

 

Can't wait to see the fnished product...(though they are never really done are they?)...might be worth cruising up to the rolling megalopolis known as Boron just to check it out

coming soon: rodtees.com

 

That would be "retired Lobucrod" now,correct?

Them legs still useable?

Don't keep us in the dark.

DocFrankenstein, that thing is looking kick ass!

 

That's wild!! Love to see some more pictures!

 

Nice rear end Doc

 

Did I just say that???
