Copart still has it too, so obviously he has a reserve on it, and Copart is selling it on consignment for him. :shrug: Or Copart paid him to much for it. :shitsweak:

I've always been a fan of 65 El Co's. Not a 64, not a 66, but a 65 is my preference. I'd own the others for sure, but 65 is my favorite. Either 65 ElCo or 65 Chevelle either one is fine.
But this... I'd tongue punch a fat girl, just one time, to have this.

That is badass!

I've always had a thing for the '66 El Camino, but I wouldn't turn down a 64 or 65.

Yep, the 64 and 65 are real close to the same, and the 66 and 67 are real close to the same. I wish I liked 66's best. That's year I was born. But I do like the 65 better, and I like the 64 better than a 66. The difference in a 64 and 65 is the taillights, and the 65 has a pointed nose and the 64 is flat. That the difference. And round gauges in both. The 66 & 67 have the long wide speedo cluster and the body lines are different.

Yea, '64 is probably my least favorite year. I just never care for the flat grille.

They pulled off that Crew Camino very nicely!

And my vote goes to the '66 model.

the auzzies love those holden Utes since they have the same power plant as the g8 ls2 motors.
it has a good amount of ass to it. my only gripe is that it uses the independent rears so no solid axles. i guess its more like a sport truck car weird hybrid thing i couldnt get used to it. oh well to each its own.
