Wonder if they still have that El Camino?
Hard to believe there was a time that a new pickup truck started at $2500 and probably didn't hit $85,000 with options.

1976 ~ Mishawaka Gates had a truck sale early in the year. Short bed six stick was advertised for $1999. I special ordered the same thing in silver, with a radio installation package, (included radio hardware and antenna) and chrome bumpers front and rear. Paid Gates $2009, excluding sales tax, with NO gotcha fees. Sold said truck four months later for $2600 and had already ordered a new a 400 inch small block Monte with air and windows for $3800 out the door. New car prices were still cheap in 76.
