Chevrolet Question
I am helping my son with his homework and the teacher asked what Chevrolet was manufactured between 1959 and 1987 and is named after a California city?
I came up with Malibu, BelAir, and ElCamino. Is anyone of them right?
Thanks,
Kurt

El Camino, California is Southeast of Red Bluff.
Malibu, California is Northwest of Santa Monica on the coast.
Bel Air is a neighborhood in Los Angeles.

Chevy El Caminos were manufactured from 1959 to 1987, with a few years of non-production in between. Here's a collection of links to Web sites for El Camino enthusiasts.

It could be a trick question since elcamino means city of gold? It might not have been named after a city but the concept.
The B-25 Mitchell wasn't named after general Mitchell but Mitchell field that was named after him.
