I am excited to be part of the forum. As a young teenager, the SS series of Chevy's were my favorite cars, but my father said there was no way. A short time later I was drafted into the Army, and one never came up over the next 30 years. During this time El Caminos became an attactive vehicle. On July 3, the best of both worlds came together for me - I purchased a 1970 SS 396 El Camino with all numbers matching, not a clone. My brother and I are in the process of doing off the frame restoration and I look forward to the knowledge this forum can assist me in this adventure. I am not restoring it to flip, it will be my everyday vehicle as I move in to the Great Years.
