Red Hot — it runs great and goes fast,sounds awesome, there has been a lot of work done to this car and it took a few years and lots of money, but its a great toy and a joy to drive, people stop and look as you drive pass them, it turns a lot of heads Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: looks Great and fast Cons: loves GAS |

My First Car. — This was my first car. I really enjoyed driving it and wish I had one similar to it now. Preferably a 1986 SS edition Pros: Car-like ride, truck-like utility. V8 Power Cons: Nothing really comes to mind. Mine was nice and I enjoyed it. |

Business In The Front, Party In The Back! — My El Camino is in great shape for being 27 years old. It only has 89,000 miles on it and there are no rattles, squeaks, or clunks. It runs like a champ and is very low maintenence. It has a 305 V8 with a 4 barrel carb and a Turbo 350 3 speed auto transmission. It does 0-60 in about 7.5 seconds, which isn't bad for an ''80s smog car, but due to the tall 2.73:1 rear gears, could be better. It gets between 14 to 16 mpg in the city and about 20-23 mpg on the highway. It rides better than a Cadillac! Pros: Fun to drive, catches everyones attention, not many on the road anymore. Cons: Its hard to find certain parts for. |
