1978 Chevrolet El Camino review from North America
"A baby blue, chromed out head turner that I wouldn't trade for anything"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only trouble I've had with the car is that the driver's side valve cover leaked oil, but a new gasket solved the problem.
General comments?
The car is about 25 years old and it runs as good as it did the day it rolled off of the assembly line.
