In a magazine of Road and Track today, I came across an article that excited me, GM is now assuring us that by 2010, A brand new EL CAMINO will likely be produced, There are pictures of the new El Camino there, IT LOOKS COOL!!!!!!! , Just thought I'd share!!

 

Sweet, three words: viva el camino

 

It's a rebadged Holden Ute.

 

I did some more research, and yes Black Rose, You are right, It is a Holden THUNDER SS, I also read that it may be uncertain at this point in time if they will actually make this car as a CHEVY, they WILL bring it to the states, But that it will likely come from the Pontiac or GMC stable, GM says Chevy's portfolio is too full right now to have a car/pick-up in their line up..

 

Pontiac has received the other Holden rabadges (GTO, upcoming G8), so that would make sense if they kept it on the Pontiac/GMC side of the company.

 

But What would Pontiac call it?? they would need to recall a nameplate from the pastI think....Parasienne?.....LeMans??..LOL!!!!

 

Caballero!

 

In Mexico, The El Camino was known as the Conquestador, maybe Pontiac will use that name...

 

correction...it was called the CONQUISTADOR...whoops!

 

GMC used the name Caballero on their version of the car and the El Camino had a trim package in the US market called the Conquistador.
