I'd like to know more about that El Crewmino! I'm not sure if that's the same car with 3 different paint jobs or 3 different cars. Almost looks like it could be the same one.

Do ya think they used a tailgate off a wagon on those chevelles?

I would agree, I think the wheels are the same in each picture [S
Nicely done, good family ride. [cl

The side windows seem to be a little too short.

That's just weird looking. I ain't driving it tho.
To each his own I guess.

 

[Willowbilly3]

Yeah, the roof is just too short.

 

[skull]

yep

The side windows seem to be a little too short.

l agree, with all that extra metal from doors, trunk lid & roof they could have stretched and tweaked it a tad to get a little more pleasing perportions, although l applaud the effort.

The rear window looks more like a windshield. Would look better with a longer roof and a smaller rear window.

Good eye! That's exactly why it has that funky angle to it and tiny roof. I knew something was off but couldn't figure it out. Thanks Bruno

Needs a chop [
The roof will get bigger and glass is over rated [cl IMHO

The rear window is the original sedan rear window, it just looks out of proportion when you shorten the roof so much.

 

[Sam_Fear]

It kind of has a Jetsons look as it is, but I agree with Soltz - needs a chop. But then, I say that about everything.

It's cause they didn't stretch the doors like they should have. If you look at a factory elcamino, the doors are quite a bit longer than what a 2 door or even a 4 door chevelle, nova, or impala are. Figured I'd throw all three body styles out there.

 

[Willowbilly3]

Pretty sure Elkys used the same door as a 2 door hardtop, just a different glass. If he would have used 2 door sedan doors, the roof would look better.

Ok, I had to play with "paint". Its a little choppy because the roof line was so curved it made it hard to get a repair section out but if you squint it helps. lol
