Price? dont ask :-) Looks like FUN to me!

If Chevy released an El Camino in the US tomorrow, this is what it would look like! We are presenting you with an opportunity to own an amazing vehicle! Granatelli Motorsports has just begun importing the Holden Ute SS and tweaking and tuning this already formidable machine to scary levels! The LS1 (5.7L Corvette Engine) powered Granatelli El Camino puts out an incredible 415hp! This is enough sheer horsepower to smoke just about anything on the road - and what a great looking vehicle to do it in! This pickup puts the upcoming Chevy SSR to shame in both style and power!

That el camino looks like a FWD vehicle to me, I will Never buy a car with FWD. Ford has admitted to its mistake and plans to go back to RWD
[as I've heard anyway]

Pickel, sounds like fun. Glad to see someone knows that in order to have a great vehicle, you don't need a 345 degree duration cam

Punks around here take a stock compression engine, stick a cam made for 13:1 into an engine with 8.5:1 then wonder why it falls flat on its face.

They put a wing on the back of a truck?

I thought that was what the tailgate was for!
