dreinecke May 3rd, 04, 8:30 AM Not to stir the pot on these shores, but DANG! Bring that thing over here, badge it as an El Camino SS, and I'll buy one!
BB_Mike May 3rd, 04, 9:19 AM How does one run a "mid 11s"?
Slick looking Elky though.

Bad Rat 414 May 3rd, 04, 9:53 AM First question...What the heck is that under the hood?
Second question...how do I get there to ride in one?
LS6Camino May 3rd, 04, 10:06 AM its a 5.7liter corvette motor , with a twin screw supercharger, similar ro the kenne bell on the cobra ... its putting over 500 hp and trq to the rear wheels.
james 474all May 3rd, 04, 10:10 AM thats tight.

hows the interior look???
baddbob71 May 3rd, 04, 10:22 AM I think the steering wheel is on the wrong side :D
LS6Camino May 3rd, 04, 11:02 AM yes you are right, its right hand drive... BUT..
check out this spy pic of one that was spotted, complete in left hand drive , and bowtie badging, could there be a north american model in the works ? ;)
sorry about the quality of the pic, the car had all this test equipment and cables hooked up to it, hmmm interesting...

soccerguy045 May 3rd, 04, 12:38 PM Whoa...that's cool. Is that engine what comes in it or did you put it in there? What usually comes in them?
LS6Camino May 3rd, 04, 8:29 PM you can order them with the buick3800 or the LS1 v8, with option of A4 or 6 speed(t56), and it has IRS with a Dana diff.
you really need to see one to really get the feel - see a small vid of one at the track (only 2mb) (http://www.micro-op.com.au/execls1/dragute.wmv)
New68SS May 3rd, 04, 10:13 PM Sweet Ride!!!
73guna May 4th, 04, 12:03 AM You aussie's are even more cooler than I thought! Nice car , for a second there I thought it was an SSR. Just the other day I was talkin' to my buddy about how Chevy should bring back the El camino , damn that was quick! My prediction , early 2005 it will hit the state's. LS-6Camino what brand of car is that? I see the bowtie on the grill and steering wheel but is it a chevy? How long have they been out? Post some more pics of your car if you can I think you got everyones attention.

Sorry to be out of the loop, but I must ask....what kind of vehicle is that? when can i get one? never seen one before...
Silver69Camaro May 4th, 04, 12:39 AM That's it, I'm moving to Australia.
Now that's what I've been talkin bout for the past 3-4 years or so. Trash that stupid SSR and bring back the ELKY!!!!....I have the Hot Rod issue of them bringing one of them over here to Cali to test drive. I remember them saying that it felt good, but because of all the smog crap they had to install on it before it was "street legal," they knew it's actual performance was hampered. I love that Elky!!!....and I'd love to have one! Gotta love that tub out back!!!....now that's meat!!! graemlins/thumbsup.gif graemlins/beers.gif :D
That's a Holden UTE right???...I remember checking out Holden's web site a couple years ago....and that Elky is still bad ass!!!
rthlc May 4th, 04, 5:08 PM I've wanted to build a 59 Ute just because they remind me of a 55 210 el camino...

BowtieAaron May 4th, 04, 8:30 PM awesome, HSV power!!! :D

427L88 May 4th, 04, 8:52 PM Welcome! Nice ride! Called an SSR, and very expensive here!
Bob Johnson May 5th, 04, 8:31 AM http://www.holden.com.au/www-holden/action/modeloverview?modelid=15000
Much more than a SSR. V8 & RWD
427L88 May 5th, 04, 8:50 AM My error, the SSR I saw had a V8 and manual tranny.
