Hello Honda-tech!

As an excuse for promoting wheelandtorque.com at events, I decided to get a 79 El Camino SS. Before I bought this hunk of work, I had an 07 WRX wagon that was a HUGE project. It had a sti 6-speed, built motor, pt67 turbo and blah blah. I had to sell it unfortunately and bought an EK Civic as a daily. (That's another thread coming soon as it's becoming a project as well.)

Anyways, I have been slowly getting it to run better and had to do some maintenance like new weatherstripping, windshield, battery, cluster and more. I started to do some mods though and it's taking shape. It has a quick release steering wheel, 32mm sways, air horn setup and a few other things. I have a bunch of suspension stuff, header wrap, rhino liner, trans cooler, 75-wet shot and etc. waiting to go in. Main goal is to restore the interior to near perfect to cruise in and make it an 11.50 index car. I hope to update this every week or so. Below are ze pics!

Cool project. Subscribing.


Had to sell my STi a few years ago and regret it to this day

 

Good luck! I like the older El Caminos more, but this is awesome!

 

Good luck with the project. That thing is a hambeast.
