I brought 1981 SS El Camino from the company I worked for $150 dollars. I immediately took that V6 out of it and put a 350 high performance engine in it.That car was fast as hell but very hard to stop.It definitely needed a brake upgrade and a frame strengthening.85 mph speedometer which broke immediately when I put that V8 in it but definitely fun to drive

Did yours have a boxed frame like the earlier Caminos did? Been wanting a late model EC for a retirement daily....take my 67 on cruise night. They seem to have more room inside and way more comfortable. Problem is finding one thats not a methmobile special

You have obviously never done a full restoration on something. All of that aftermarket goodness on this car costs money and lots of it. Just that LS from Mast Motorsports is over $16k...new t56 transmission adds about another $3200.....fuel system another $2500 (minimum)....Strange brakes and rotors and spindles another $2500.....Strange 9 inch rear another $2500.....Just that shit alone adds up to over $26,000......that doesn't include bodywork, paint, interior, man hours, all the little tidbit shit during a build that will nickle and dime you to death etc etc.
