I've seen these picture from time to time and with the jalopiknik article about this cool Cadillac El Camino I started searching more and reading more about it.

That would be awesome. Huge engine and the luxury of Cadillac. Caminofication is pure in this one. That is of course debatable.
Oh and it feels good to be driving around again.

Other El Camino part II, Pontiac Lemans Sport Truck.
Pontiac Lemans Sport Truck. I have seen pictures of this before but now it's for sale Pontiac Lemans Sport Truck at www.leadedgasclassics.com
, go check it out! More pictures! At least for now.

"This sport truck is 1 of 1 Prototype constructed new in 1967 for presentation and review for production by Pontiac Motor Division President. It is believed to have been responsible for the introduction of the GMC Sprint."
In a Hemmings.com blog is more a reasonable explanation about the birth of this hybrid:
"group of Pontiac dealers in the Midwest, unhappy that Pontiac didn’t get their own version of the Chevrolet El Camino, pooled their resources to build this car by melding a LeMans Safari station wagon nose (and, as we see from the photos, dash and drivetrain) with an El Camino chassis and cab."
This is short story in Chevelles.com backs up this side of the story.
That would be awesome to own. It's not that hard to custom made since most of the body sheet metal are interchangeable between cars that has the same GM platforms.

The Caminofication.
The Caminofication. New word to me. There are plenty of cars that has gone through that and I have already posted one or two posts about it. I came a cross this term in this roadandtrack.com article about this Range Rover that had been converted to SUT from SUV. And I have to say, I would never ever need it, but I kind of want it. It's cool looking and functionality is... well.

Other "El Camino".
I came across this ad in Craigslist today and someone has made a Mopar "El Camino" out of Plymouth Satellite.
After I used Google Image search I found this blog: moparblog.com and there was yet an another conversion made from Dodge Demon:
I've seen few GM-made conversions but never a Mopar one. Now one with a Hemi, would that be awesome?
