Follow along as Mark builds a show car out of this 1978 Chevrolet El Camino, 383 small block, factory four speed (pretty rare).  Mark is currently refabricating the fiberglass nose and correcting the front bumper.  When completed, this very cool car will sport candy apple red racing stripes on a pearl white custom paint job.

The El Camino was purchased for Terry Pearson (in Ignacio, CO) by his wife.  The gift was a birthday gift as a project car – and Terry wants a show car.  When Terry received the car, it had a Iroc frontend on it, which was too low, and he didn’t like it.  He ordered a special-made frontend from California – which was stolen during shipping.  Not to be deterred, he ordered another one, and we’ll get it installed for him.
