Garage
My biggest anti-theft part of the El Camino is the totally worn out keys. After 27 years and 364,000 miles, the brass keys are so worn down that I have to hold the key just right to open the door. Even my wife can't do it. When I had my colonoscopy I forgot to bring my spare keys for her to drive me home. She went to get the car and could not open the door, so the nurse went out to try. They both gave up and said it was not possible. So I had to go out to the parking garage and open the door like always. I handed my wife the keys and went to the passenger side. The door locks are 100% manual so someone has to reach across and pull the lock knob to unlock the passenger side. The windows a re manual roll up as well. The backup set of keys work fine, and anyone can use em as designed.
