as per Hercmans suggestion, I took a shot at what an "El Camino" version of the GP might look like...check it out.

sorry Herc for not using your ride but I needed a good side shot. I really like the way this one turned out.

Thanks Tbat PS'd a pic for my desktop and I think Austin turned it into a sig so I grabbed it. Tbat found the wheels somewhere and PS'd the lugnuts from my torque stars to the new rims then added it to my car. He did good didn't he. They look real.

the more I look at this "Grand Camino" the better I like it...I may just have to do a "ThunderCamino" version! (after I get done with all these other wallpapers) thumbsup I do wish I could make a living doing this stuff, after watching some of that design and build stuff on "Rides"...man those guys have got the dream job, creating cool concept cars and gettin paid the big bucks to do it!

Quality comes to mind when I watch some of those build a car in five days kinda thing. I mean come on if you could get reliability in a build that quick why does it take months to build up customs?

I guess on "Overhaulin" they're just doin replacement and upgrading mostly, along with good paint and minor body mods...plus the crew is huge and the outside support is amazing...where as in a custom shop with 10 guys working on 6 or 7 projects with massive custom fabrication the work slows way down...like 7 days into 7 months...plus the custom guys go home at night and sleep!
