Stay tuned for more new photos once I get all the chrome moldings and trim back on. Below are some very recent photos of my new paint job. It's looks and great! Not bad for a $800 paint job! I started working on my El Camino in Feb of 1999 and my brother (Matthew) did all the body work over a 3 year period in his auto body class at school. By Hugh Llewelyn from Keynsham, UKCC BY-SA 2.It's finally done!!! My 1968 El Camino is finally painted after 3 years of work and body prep. The final El Camino rolled off the assembly line without much of a fuss in 1987. The last generation of the El Camino began production in 1978 using the GM G-Body platform. The El Camino continued to use Chevelle styling on a wagon chassis through 1977. The LS6 454 CID engine made 450 hp and pushed the El Camino through the 1/4-mile in the upper 13s at about 106 mph. In 1970, El Camino buyers could opt for Chevrolet’s most powerful engine straight from the factory for the first time. This in part led Chevrolet to discontinue the model until a Chevelle based revival hit the market in 1964. Only 14,163 1960 El Caminos left the lot, compared to some 21,000 Fords. While Chevrolet outsold Ford for 1959, the next year would flip flop. It featured mid-level Bel Air styling on the outside and a lower class interior based on the Biscayne. While the vehicle could be dealer equipped with any Chevrolet drivetrain, just one trim level could be had. The first year El Camino was a success, outselling the Ranchero approximately 22,000 to 14,000. Chevy responded with the release of the El Camino, which was based on the 1959 Brookwood two-door station wagon. It wouldn’t be until 1957 that a coupe truck would come to the States when Ford introduced the Ranchero.
