Hey Gary

What part of NC did you live in?

[blown1]

I was just outside Winston Salem, called Pfafftown,
left there over 5yrs ago, just sold the house last month,
really pretty area,   just not for me,

Jesus, somebody's got some fucking toys!

I'd love to find a 59 or 60 Elco to build. They're starting to get more popular so the prices are going up. I always wanted to Pro Street one. I think it would look kinda cool. Maybe Pro Touring would fit in better nowadays. Hard to find them with good sheet metal.

Here a pic of the el co, I haven't  had time to  complete it. its a 350, 5 spd,  dual throttle bodies, PS, PB, A/C, TILT, PWR WINDOWS, it sits on american mags T 70's,
( look them up, if you can find em!)  295-50-15 rear, 225-50-15 front,  flow masters,
I have a louver press, so you can imagine  what the hood will look like when I'm done,
never enough time , and money for everything!

I love the backgrounds in the photos.....sor ry, I'm a scenery guy. When you're headed west on I-40, then turn onto 93, you go through a brief canyon and then that giant valley that you drive from there to just about Hoover Dam is gorgeous. I look forward to seeing it again in a few weeks.

Natty, what year was your El Camino?

[87natty]

81 SS baby! All Cali, non AC (and I have a few non AC heater boxes too boot!), bench seat, column shifted. Used to have a built and juiced 355 SBC with an Art Carr TH400 in it. Then I sent a rod through the pan and it's been hanging out for a couple years now, no bread to work on it. I have 2 four bolt main 350 blocks laying around. I will trade them for an Olds or Buick 455 block.

I went to jail because of the parts I was hoarding for it, some lightweight  forged cranks, lightweight rods and some forged pistons. I wanted it to rev to 7,000 rpms or higher to scare the piss out of everyone next to me.

I like the 59/60's. I hate the 64 - 72's, so common.

Hey Dceptcn
here a photo I just took  out my front window, the stream of lights going up over the hill, on left side is I 40,  you will see this view in reverse when you come over the hill and into Kingman, on your way to Las Vegas.
we live on a hill side and  love the view!

Where/how the hell can you see a stream of traffic!?!?!

lol Robert, most folks from out east don't understand that the viewa in the west are very far. I can see mountains from my porch that are over an hour away.
