Hey there, I'm Nick, I'm 19 years old. I've had a 1978 El Camino for about 2 years now. It was my grandfather's car for years, I helped him work on it when I was a kid and when I turned 17 he gave it to me. The car has always been well taken car of and my grandfather did a lot to it. It has a mildly built 355, a TH350, the interior has been redone, as have a lot of things. The engine is tired, and I have my own plans for the car anyway. It's not perfect, but nothing is.

I always loved this car and I can't wait to build it up. I have many future plans, but it'll be a while seeing as I'm in college. The site seems awesome, and I'm always on here looking around, but I just never joined. Thanks alot!

No problem! I think the body lines on the car look great, I know it's photoshoped but if it even looks close to that, it'll be awesome. You have a lot of great ideas.
