1969 Elcamino

So after years of hanging on to what was left of my first car, the wife convinced me it was time to stop building and flipping other cars that meant relativley nothing to me and actually build and finish my first true love. It took a while for me to get onboard because i knew when i built this car it was going to be expensive because it would be exactly as i would want to build her. Long story short I got on board and sold off all of my other projects and rolled my first love into the garage from her 10 year resting spot in the backyard. The drivetrain all long gone to piece together other money makers over the years so i sat down in search of what would be the heart of this beast. After 6 months of craigslisting i had located myself a nice 4 bolt main stock GM crate 454 and a TH400, being as she was born with a 12 bolt i decided to recycle it for the build. After two years of spare weekends and nights after work heres what i have thus far:
