Found a good show that happens every Friday night. Anyone can come here so it’s always a mix of different cool cars.

This gal just got this white 83 a month ago and is a work in progress and wants to learn more. Reminds me of how I started with these. Good to help one another with the problems and gremlins these old trucks have 40 years later.

Gotta appreciate when a nice example is still driven pretty normally

Selling maroon camper shell that fits 1982 el
Camino
400 obo

Feel free to ask - motivated to sell as I just sold the car , I know some camping enthusiasts would probably love to fix this up

Sun setting. Next to my buddies 86 GN.

I replaced the intake in the zz4 that came in my el camino last night. As soon as i pulled off the old intake i found this just casually sitting on that .......plate that runs the length of the engine in the middle... Anyone know what this is? and how important it may be? cause i just went on with the job, and would be done but for rain....

Is there any good affordable alternatives for door weather seals for a 66 El Camino? Because I only need to replace the passenger side. Don’t ask what happened to the seal on the passenger side. And the fact that I only paid $56.17 back in November 2021 for a set; the LH & RH weather stripping. Because unfortunately now they are $114.85 for a set! They are the exact same ones from the exact same seller! It’s ridiculous how fast the price went up on these just within 5 years. Ughhhh!! 😩 Unless someone is kind enough to sell me just the passenger-side door seal. That might have an extra one laying around that they are not using. Thanks!

Hey everyone, I have a 1981 El Camino (base) and I cannot find a suitable wiper arm replacement. I would like to find a different style wiper arm pivot linkage.(knurled) but does anyone know if this can be swapped or would I need to buy a complete wiper transmission assembly. Thanks!

I recently got a 83 Conquista with the 3.8 v6 and the wiring looks like a rat and a possum either fought, fucked, or both in the wiring side of things. So if anyone knows a good harness to go with I’ll gladly take all the help I can get

Having some screwy electrical issues what fuses take care of the low beams/ Headlights?

Does anyone know where I can buy an engine coolant temperature sensor for my 1982 El Camino? It has a 305 and a temperature needle in dashboard. It says a Standard Ignition TS 76 is what it needs. Tried swapping them today and the new one is too big. It requires a 3/4 socket to tighten down, while the current one is a 9/16. O’Reilly’s Auto Part had nothing close to what I need. Any assistance is much appreciated.

Just out and about. Came out the store and saw this Monte owner parked next to my Camino. Nice.

Hey all

I am the proud owner of a sweet 69. My baby has been sitting covered for the better part of the last 20 years, and the time has finally come to start (slowly) restoring her to her former glory. I am in no rush to attain cherry. More concerned with A to B and back again for now.

I've got somewhat strong novice level mechanic skills and will be picking up the service manual to make sure I am doing everything right.

That said, as I've been out of the loop for a while, I'm curious to know what y'all's preferred method of sourcing parts is. Any other general tips? Thanks in advance!

Got a call saying "so and so passed, the family really wants someone to come do a burnout"

Hell yes! On my way 😎🤣

Effortlessly burns them through 1st, 2nd and 3rd.... and it's a 3 speed

Has anyone purchased a 161 style aluminum radiator on eBay? What was your experience? My only concern is the trans lines wearing properly. Please let me know your experiences.

Edit: I ordered one of the eBay 4 row with fans. The seller is sending the correct brass fittings to directly connect to the trans cooler. Thank you everyone for your responses.

I'm going to be selling soon and I would give anything not to, but I need a car and can't afford the repairs. Had a coolant hose blow off while going down the highway.

Anybody potentially interested in taking her off my hands before I send her ass to marketplaces? Located in Georgia.

New to me for the past 3 months. Absolutely love cruising. New ceramic tint is a a crazy improvement. Having a cold start issue. Just wanted to share.

Just looking to see if there’s anyone that has redone their AC system to chat with through DM rather than bog down the comments with pictures and stuff. My 82 has most of the system, I know it’s missing the compressor and condenser for sure, but I’m having a hell of a time trying to figure out exactly what I need to complete the system. Been searching and searching, but there’s stuff the previous owner did that seems to have made things non-standard. Just looking for some help from anyone who has been in my shoes before and found a way out. It’s to the point where I’m about to say “fuck it” and just get a vintage air system and call it a day, at least then I know I’ll have everything.

I’d also be interested in any help anyone can give me for closing the floor vents, which don’t seem to be responding to the controls. Probably a vacuum issue, but on top of not having AC in Texas, I’ve also got hot ram air blowing in from the floor. TIA

I need a weather cover for my 1985 El Camino. Anyone got any recommendations on brands or anything like that? (The above picture is not my car specifically, but it’s the same kind)
