I just joined today after a couple of weeks looking around. Glad to see loads of information.
My current plan is to do a frame off restoration on the El Camino. Currently the car is in pieces while I find time to be a new dad. I'm learning to weld b/c I want to reinforce the frame b/f I have it powder coated.
My plan for the engine is to rebuild it. I don't believe the engine has ever been rebuilt or at least it hasn't in the past 20 years my dad owned it. I'm tosing around ways to make mid 400's. Hopefully that isn't too much power for a block that started with 250 horses.
I look forward to driving the car in about 4 years (maybe less). I also look forward to giving and sharing information.

BTW, anyone have any idea on how to remove the ignition switch? I've got the car a part minus this ONE item. I even removed the glass and doors single handed but I can't figure out the switch
