El Camino

We have a customer who owns a Mustang and we look after it for him. Recently he has purchased a vehicle and has asked us to work our magic on it for him. Yes, we do work on Mustangs as our preferred vehicles, we even used to work on Porsches at the same time too, we even work on the odd UK car as well. We were talked into turning this solid and quite cool El Camino round into a road worthy state. We like a challenge and something a little different now and again so we agreed. Some of the mechanics need to be replaced due to rust and rotting issues in the usual places. The other additions are upgrades such as the disc front brakes, the carburetor, distributer, manifold, UK right hand side spec lights, the exhaust has been custom-made to take the extra punch from the Holley 600CFM Carb it now has in place etc etc. you get the idea anyway.

We’re looking forward to giving this beast a blast once she’s done.

The engine has had an integral, distributer, electronic ignition and coil fitted at the back of the engine. The Holley looks good in place with the custom-made linkage fitted. Plenty of chrome to be added yet.

The old carb and intake

The old drums removed and were replaced with disc conversions.

Custom exhaust that sounds as good as it looks! (the old drums still in place at the time we fitted the exhaust)
