Vettamino? Bamino? I have to say, I kinda like the Corvette. Doesn't Holden make an ElCamino style vehicle now?

    That Corvettamino with a modern tonneau cover would be smooth. Perfect for a couple bags of groceries.

    The Vette would go NO where depending on heavy your boots are that day. I dig it. It's a 2-seater anyway, why not make it useful?

    I'll play along, Caddymino, taking home bags of mulch in style. I would like it better if the back doors had been welded and shaved.
    Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

    It actually makes me miss my Subaru Brat.

    Yeah, it was my favorite vehicle in the post-high school days. I would love to own one again.....British Racing Green....lol, rather the Japanese version....TTops, jumper seats, 4wd, easy to maintain, perfect. I learned how to drive a 5 speed on that truck, with my Dad in a movie theater parking lot.

    More like always. They are called Utes in Australia. Ford and Chevy (Holden) have them.

    That loos more like a flower car than a Cadillac El Camino. Then again, if you want a Caddy-camino, buy a hearse and chop the top off the back end. They are essentially a 3/4 ton chassis so you could haul almost a ton worth of junk in style! I don't think anyone makes a tow hitch for a Cadillac hearse though.
