According to the owner that El Camino was a "california special" or some sort, made for hauling a surf board, why you couldn't haul it in the bed I'm not 100% sure. Said it was one of 600 or something. I never did figure out if it was factory made or not.

I want to thank all the C3 and older car owners for bringing their cars to the Expo, I'll never get tired of looking at them! I was going to say that the Fall expo had more cars than the Spring did, but I remembered I just went on Friday in the Spring.

no luck selling our 1960 but we had a ton of lookers
Which 60 was yours?

There was a red 60 in the car corral on a trailer. i'm guessing that's the one.

That (green) Nova Yenko 'clone' sold at auction for less than $20,000.
The pricing on C-4's was amazing to say the least. A friend couldn't stand it and bought a beautiful brown C-4 coupe for $5900. It was in great shape and looked new inside and out. A later model C-5 Z06 went for over $26,000. I didn't look it over and don't know the mileage, but at auction it seemed a bitg high.

John and I sold a ton of C-5 parts.
