Body Swap Project Takes an Unexpected Turn | Rust Issues, New Parts for my Shop Truck, & Boat Day?!

In this episode of the El Camino Honda body swap series, we kick things off by installing the hood on the El Camino. However, things take a turn when we discover rust that makes the hood unusable. After trying out some quick-release latches and not liking the result, I decide to order a new hood, which will save time and make the build even better in the end.
Taking a break from the build, I hit the water with a good friend, running up and down some local rivers. It’s great to relax and have some fun when we should be working!
Back in the garage, I turn my attention to my 1965 GMC 2500. I install a new set of valve covers and a matching air cleaner from Holley Performance. The new parts look awesome!
To wrap things up, we install a custom lip on the El Camino's front bumper by retrofitting a newer Chevy truck lip. It took some cutting and plastic welding, but we made it happen, and I couldn’t be happier with the result!

If you can find them, a set of Chevrolet Celebrity Eurosport headlights can be used to convert to a composite headlight setup. Should fit the existing grille with just a couple of brackets made to attach to the existing core support.

When i was a very small child my dad had a white 63 Chevy with tool bodies in place of the stepside fenders. Maybe that's why i love your shop truck so much. I kinda want one now. Been watching you since you painted Kyle's hatch. Love the channel, keep being you bro. 💯

Multiple companies make them now. Eastwood is $200, HF $150 ($90 Inside Track right now), Vevor about $90 on Amazon, no-name (Vevor clone?) about $80 on Amazon I think I've seen the sanding rolls for one more than once at a local returns bin store. Like an idiot, I didn't pick them up for when I finally get around to buying the tool.

@@TheTalonts Cool, good to see more options. When I bought mine, Eastwood was the only I saw, but I used a buddy's for some paint removal before welding, and clean up, and I was BLOWN away. At the time, the Eastwood was the only one I saw, I got it for $180-ish.

@TheTalonts 23 күн бұрын

Why didn't you just hit a boneyard for a hood latch out of a Honda or even a Chevy of the El Camino era and fit it in? With all the other crazy fitting you've done, that would be trivial. That hood wasn't a bad price at all! Cheaper than hoods on most new cars. The rectangular air filter could be used by anyone converting an older vehicle over, as it wouldn't be too hard to build a box for it feeding either a throttle body or a carb.
