![]() ![]() But, as you can see from that box/bed photo, all is not perfect with this El Camino. ![]() I love the rounded portion of the bed, that’s a great detail. With only 71,298 miles, this beautiful car is hardly broken in yet, and I would have expected to see even fewer miles than that on this beauty. It’s getting scary out there on the roads, folks. It can sit there while you decide whether to actually drive it on actual public roads with actual human drivers doing all sorts of actual stupid things behind the wheel instead of actually driving.
