And it had that wonderful GM 327 V8. Lovely beast.

Thanks for your educational correction guys.
George, you have hawk eye...not being sure about automaker, I used Google as Plymouth... link came up...and did not read names under the pics as Ferret mentioned...I think, I had dirty welding goggles on...lol...Blush

1965 Chevrolet El Camino ... though I could see how the front could be confused with the 1964 Plymouth Belvedere (I grew up in the back of a station wagon version).

1967/68 are my favorite El Camino/Malibu designs.

(I spent my preadolescent youth memorizing how to identify USA makes and model years from the mid 1950s into the 1970s ... we had no internets, VHS or video games back then.) Big Grin

At this point I'm waiting for someone to post a Mini-pickup?

How about this link:
[url=https://www.google.com/search?q=1968+plymouth+el+camino&tbm=isch&source=univ&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjO2Jmwl8zjAhVKCM0KHR5vCYAQsAR6BAgIEAE&biw=1353&bih=634]https://www.google.com/search?q=1968+ply...53&bih=634

I enlarged the second picture to 400%. On the back the chrome script is El Camino and has the Chevy emblem beside it.

When I came to Canada in 1981, my head was spinning around by 360*+, just trying to recognize the automakers, forget about their models...
Cool

RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

I've a friend who likes to restore old stuff, including these two muscle cars and a gas pump.

The Mustang is a '69, the Dodge Challenger is a '70

He is really a Mopar guy, and likes trucks mainly, but these are his babies.

He also has a Road Glide that he's ridden all over a lot of the far west, a nice machine but this month isn't "your bike with a Road Glide...Biker
