Sneak peek whats up with The El Camino!

My back is aching and I really can't do too much at the moment for my El Camino. I still have gathered parts little by big and up coming winter I'll be doing some modification to my current out and in look. He are few sneak peek photos:

Whats that bulge doing there?

Is there any other colour than matte black?

Whats with the spokes?

And on the other day we had so much raining in short period that it flooded to our garage. Janne was visiting our garage and took these photos and posted them on our garage's whatsup chat:

You can check his blog about building/restoration his 1972 Chevrolet Camaro SS at: http://jakulepi.blogspot.fi/

It is in Finnish, but I think you can translate it through Google translate. A lot of pictures! Check it out!

It's been a while.

Old look.

We had a bit of tragic spring time and I haven't done anything to my El Camino since March. I even haven't been updating my facebook fan page and I got well over 1100 fans! Thank you all for that!

Yesterday I made a purchase that I have been waiting for a bit over year, I think, well at least an year. I'll post later sneak a peak of what I am planning on doing over next winter. I have come to conclusion that I won't be taking El Camino on the road on this year, or maybe for a quick yearly inspection to get it ready for next spring and driving season.

I also ordered for a first time from Rockauto.com for some steering components that I got a mentioned last year when I was at yearly inspection, didn't get rejection, but notice from the inspector that those are soon to be in dire need of replacement.

Oh, and I have also ordered that sliding rear window that I have been talking about on few of latest posts. Should arrive in August. So, I'll have that too to change, among other things.

Sliding rear window part 2

I have posted earlier of an item that is on my wishlist which is a sliding rear window. I have tried to find some pictures about it as installed and I had one kind of in my plain sight. First time I shot this El Camino was back in 10th of the July last year:

And what do you know:

It has that sliding rear window! I didn't remember it until I saw it for sale at FHRA Auction which was held in last weekend at American Car Show 2016.

 

It was sold just bit over 15000 €. Too bad that I didn't have my flash with me so I couldn't any better picture of it than this:

But at least I gotto see it in person and that definately wrapped my head around getting one on my El Camino. Okay, I am running out of time for getting that for this driving season and also I have run out of money too, so it'll have to wait till next winter.
