Nah, the El Camino was a 2 seater and had a full bed in back. BONUS QUESTION: which of these engines were NOT available on the '61 El Camino... the 409, 283, 327 or the 396??? One cyber beer to the first correct answer!

There's more than one motor not used. Good answer though. OK you get one Beer. A 24 to the one that gets the correct answer.

Only 283 was in 61' in 64' the 327 came in. 396 in 66' 409 never sold in el camino. But the 396 SS were actually 402's

ok I may be off base but I think there was no el camino in 61'...

[datzenmike]

First year El Camino was '59. 72 327 is right but why?

[72 327]

ok I may be off base but I think there was no el camino in 61'...

 

 

1 First generation (1959-1960)

2 Second generation (1964-1967)

3 Third generation (1968-1972)

4 Fourth generation (1973-1977)

5 Fifth generation (1978-1987)

 

GM discontinued the line for 4 years 61-63.

 

I dont know why. only the 383

so none of them were in a 61 el camino... I'll split it with you 72...

[datzenmike]

OK, OK. You both win. A 24 of your choice. I remember seeing the new '59 Chev when it came out. Outrageous fins and cat's eye tail lights.

Ok sounds good.

 

The only way somebody could have a 61' is if they bought it in 61' But was really made in January-Feb of 60.

LOL I dont member I was born in 74'. I wish I live back before all this BS in the world today. It was alot more fun and lots of hot rods in every town.

It's all perspective. I was a teen through the 60's and thought it and the '70s, (well the start) was a great time. Fuck around in school, leave school, get Dart muscle car, drink beer, endless summers. My parents thought it was the end of our civilization Cuban missile crisis, JFK assassination, the Beatles, draft dodgers, Kent State, Woodstock, riots in the street. Now, I see loss of freedoms in the name of national security, pollution, global warming, economic disasters, crime, Dubya....
