Speaking from a technical standpoint, your El Camino isnt a truck.
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

I have a 4 car garage here at my home. I'm getting married in a few months and am going to have to move.

The thought of loosing my garage is making me sick.

Iits got a pick up body but the cab isnt separate from the box and correct me if Im wrong but I want to say the box is part of the frame (unibody) unlike a truck where the box floats on the frame.

Greetings:

Truck, *... Under the rugged double-walled bed and three-seater interior there beats the 350 cubic-inch heart of a late-70s Malibu. Call it what you will, it's a classic, it's cool, it's a Chevy.

I know the feeling, I have always had a two car garage. We've been moving alot the last year plus with no garage. Now I'm back where it all started, in my first house. Two car garage, full insulation, dry walled, gas heater all my torches, welder, and tools. Life is so great now. I have pics but this form don't make it easy too add images too a thread. DW

There is now 3 more scooters, a DR650, and the V-Strom 1000 is back in there, so needless to say it's a lil more packed. All together there are 6 scooters and 6 motorcycles in there, will post some pics today while I'm working.

How does this happen to me? The never ending battle of the buldge! :roll:
