        Comments:

        The "Custom El Camino" is one of "Detroits", as the real American made models in the Topper line up are known. It is a lightly customized version of the 1968
        Chevrolet of the same name, with power bulges on the hood, scoop like additions on the sides of the bed and two radical surfboards on top of the enclosed bed.
        Like the other 7 Cars from the Great Eight, it came with open or sealed doors and always with painted surfboards.
