I saw my DVD recorded the second part of the show. I will watch it soon. One thing they were saying in the show is the El Camino was built on a station wagon frame. That is not totally accurate. THe El Camino frame is a different part number from the station wagon. The Elky frame is longer. On the forum El Camino Central they had a long thread on it. One member was trying to rebuild his frame and had a nice station wagon frame. It was not easy project since he had to modify it a lot.
I do love the fact that the put the same heat and air system in the Elky and the station wagon. In the tiny two seat cabin the AC kicks butt. It would suck in the station wagon giant interior. My drive home is just 8 miles and 12 minutes. I can leave here on a 100+ degree day and be getting cold enough that I have to turn the AC down before I get home.
