The El Camino at Hot Rods by Boyd in 1993.

Like all long-term project ours has been revised
and updated many times.  Even today it is ready for a wheel upgrade and will soon get a new set of bonspeed "VINSPEED" style wheels.  The new wheels will be 19X8 and 20X10 for yet another look.

The photo at right shows the El Camino when it was completely rebuilt from the frame up at Hot Rods by Boyd.  In case you do not know, Boyd Coddington and Brad Fanshaw (bonspeed owner)
were business partners.  The El Camino was placed in the hands of the team at HRBB.  It is shown here just two stalls from Eddie Van Halen's- Van Hauler pick-up and Wilt Chamberlin's modified sportscar.
