New ones are just rolling problems on wheels, I pulled up to the gas station awhile ago and a lady was there with a brand new Chevy Crossover, probably a '17 model. She had just put gas in it and the car went completely dead, had power but refused to do anything when the ignition was pushed. She had to get her brand new car towed to the dealer, ridiculous!

They're just playing to the current market. Every brand has a whole big range of SUVs that are barely bigger than one another but that's what the people want. I agree they should've made the Blazer more off-road worthy or at least given it a different name, but the car itself isn't that bad. And it isn't going to hurt sales either. If anything, I think it'll help sales because the older people that are getting SUVs are going to remember the Blazer name, possibly connect it to a good memory or something, and then buy it based off nostalgia or maybe just name recognition.

@Mark Lance Hey its brainwashed hill billy ❄️

Scotty please keep us in the loop on the restoration! Better yet, make a new series!

I have owned many Elkys from 1959 to 1978 models. The best one was a 1974 model, but body parts were extremely hard to find. The 1978 to 1986 models still have any part you can think of still available thru aftermarket sources. The worst thing about Elkys is the frame rusts out real bad in the rear wheel areas. JB

Just like my 95 Grand Marquis. Solid frame. Of course I don't have a rich dad to help me fix the cosmetic stuff. But it still runs smooth as silk so it's not a big deal ...... truly blessed

Lucky he has a smart dad who did smart things and made a few extra dollars to take care of his family.

Cannot wait to see it when it's finished!

Awesome find. Had a '79 Malibu wagon which was very similar to this. Same basic shape. Solid green with no spoiler. V8 267ci. It got poor mileage due to it needing work. This Camino brings back memories. Saw lots of them in the 80's.

I have a brown one with the 267. Great car. Sleeper for sure. Stomped more than a few wannabe racers. Kinda rotting away in my driveway now. Bet if the interior was fresh the girls would dig it as much as I do.

You better not abandon the Celica

You can tell Scotty knew ALL about the Saturday night “feature” in those older vehicles

El camino's are still my favorite cars since I saw my first one in '76. Never bought one but looked at many. I agree with you and hope they don't screw up the new ones if they ever do come out with a new one. Funny the Blazer was the first thing I thought of when you said that !! Thanks Scotty for all you do !!

I bought a ‘76 El Camino in 1979 for $3500, best car I ever had. Wish I still had it😢

Wow finally i saw a good feedback from you about old American cars! Please talk about them more, there are too many like me still living in those days and sick of new junk cars.

A trip to craigslist/ faceboom market place youll find them with v8's running and driving listed for 1.5-2k. He has a 6 its less desired probablly listed for 1.2-1.5. Then the kid probablly found one desperate enough to let it go for 500 bucks which isn't suprising. If you have the time, the patience, and willingness to sell off part of your soul for a good deal its more than possible.

nice to hear scotty give a GM product some love

very cool, dig the old chevy man! ...u should do some videos following the buildup...

It looks like your 'Mini-Me' got a good deal on that El-Camaro. It must run in the family!

I like the bench seat

Very nice find

Scotty, I owned a 1966 El Camino with a 283 cu. in. engine and used to cruise Bill Williams Attifs, Princes' back in the day and I loved it.

I’ve always liked the El Camino body style. Keep us posted on the restoration progress.

5:54 I hope the New Elcamino comes back with front split bench seating for reasons described at: 2:11 and also for practicality purposes such as knee room.

GREAT VIDEO

I would love to see a project series where you guys work on it

A lot to be said for a car with a bench seat and no floor shift.... but I'm not going to say it. There were advantages to "Three on the tree"

No idea. I only know about the 190 because a friend in High School had one.

Is a 2010 Toyota Camry a reliable car to buy. It has 140,000 miles and is for 3,500 dollars. Should I buy it?

That's a REAL GEM, Scotty! BTW, where do you get your inserted funny pics?

Great pic Scotty!
