I'd like to know more about that El Crewmino! I'm not sure if that's the same car with 3 different paint jobs or 3 different cars. Almost looks like it could be the same one.

Do ya think they used a tailgate off a wagon on those chevelles?

I would agree, I think the wheels are the same in each picture [S

The side windows seem to be a little too short.
That's just weird looking. I ain't driving it tho.
To each his own I guess.

Yeah, the roof is just too short.

yep
l agree, with all that extra metal from doors, trunk lid & roof they could have stretched and tweaked it a tad to get a little more pleasing perportions, although l applaud the effort.

The rear window looks more like a windshield. Would look better with a longer roof and a smaller rear window.

Good eye! That's exactly why it has that funky angle to it and tiny roof. I knew something was off but couldn't figure it out. Thanks Bruno

The rear window is the original sedan rear window, it just looks out of proportion when you shorten the roof so much.

It's cause they didn't stretch the doors like they should have. If you look at a factory elcamino, the doors are quite a bit longer than what a 2 door or even a 4 door chevelle, nova, or impala are. Figured I'd throw all three body styles out there.

Pretty sure Elkys used the same door as a 2 door hardtop, just a different glass. If he would have used 2 door sedan doors, the roof would look better.
