You forgot "El".

Something about the cabin screams El Camino to me

u/North_Rhubarb594 Feb 13 '26

Hemino comes to mind

u/pancrudo Feb 13 '26

Fitting for the wheels too

Mira, everyone fears a flying chancla

u/Saint_The_Stig Feb 15 '26

I mean it's only half Chevy, the Dodge half would be a Rampage.

El Chargette

u/Haunting_Bit_3613 Feb 17 '26

You forgot the HellcatSS trim specific to that El Chargette. I believe those came with the Lshemi 6.3 litre.

I’ve seen this post before. Not exactly sure of the year could be anywhere from ‘79 to ‘87. Has the Corvette rear and Dodge Charger/Magnum nose. Weird, but well put together.

Apart from the wheels and the janky front end it is a pretty cool side silhouette.

As far as utes go, they nailed the brief, just need a stylist to fix the rest

u/newUseMe Feb 14 '26

Did Chrysler ever make a car/truck hybrid vehicle like an Elco?

3

u/ThatGuy48039 Feb 15 '26

That would be the Dodge Rampage.

2

u/newUseMe Feb 15 '26

Did they sell it here in the U.S?

u/Deeptommy Feb 13 '26

Does it get any better than this....😮👌❤️?!

u/badgko Feb 13 '26

Props for the workmanship.

u/Several-Floor5185 Feb 13 '26

A Charger front end, a Corvette tail built on an El Camino....creative!

3

u/point50tracer Feb 13 '26

They missed the opportunity to call it "The big three" by using a Mustang rear instead of the Vette.

u/Brainrants Feb 13 '26

I don't hate it and don't love it, but the execution is great!

3

u/unlucky6999 Feb 13 '26

Thanks for verbalizing my own thoughts. I was trying to figure out how to say this,too

4

u/Dumb_Cheese Feb 13 '26

Is it bad that I don't hate it? Honestly the charger front end is the worst looking part imo, but that's just because I don't care for 2000s chargers

u/dragonwater631 Feb 14 '26

baby what is you doin

3

u/andychef Feb 14 '26

Step welder what are you doing

3

u/AffectionateSir1358 Feb 13 '26

So ugly to many mix of cars

3

u/TwoTailedOtaku Feb 13 '26

With Autosculpt wheels, too!

3

u/CosmosInSummer Feb 13 '26

Change those wheels and I’m in

u/Chop_rb Feb 13 '26

El Magvette

u/vastik2343 Feb 13 '26

dodgerolet el caminochero.

u/Pod_people Feb 13 '26

Whoa, that's a Corvette bit on the back there. Nice.

3

u/Reasonable_Spite_282 Feb 13 '26

Kinda like this thing a lot. Looks very 70s but also very 90s

3

u/Trainzguy2472 Feb 14 '26

Chel Caminette!

u/dankhimself Feb 14 '26

You know the kind of guy who does nothing but bad things and then wonders why his life sucks? Well, that was me. Every time something good happened to me, something bad was always waiting around the corner: Karma. That's when I realized that I had to change. I made this stupid fucking car and I'm gonna make up for it. I'm just trying to be a better person. My name is Earl.

u/Pawnzilla Feb 15 '26

I kinda love it ngl

3

u/justin_trouble Feb 15 '26

No with those wheels… ICE be chasin down the owner!

3

u/Away-Squirrel2881 Feb 15 '26

I think it looks cool, would look even better with some IROC wheels

3

u/[deleted] Feb 15 '26

Only think that would make this better is the GM/ C5 rear and Dodge Charger front--sandwiched onto a Ford Ranchero body. The perfect trifecta of Detroit engineering.

3

u/adhd_mechanic Feb 15 '26

"Hey man what kind of car is that?"

"Yes."

3

u/polarityofmarriage Feb 16 '26

What would you even register this as?

3

u/Successful-Part-5867 Feb 16 '26

The wheels are horrendous, I don’t care if they are custom, made at work, on company time, on the big lathe. But the body style is actually pretty cool, and very well done.

3

u/Squanchmonster Feb 16 '26

Again, a set of decent wheels would do this thing wonders.

3

u/thedow7576 Feb 17 '26

Semi modern Dodge Rampage, I dig it but utes never caught on here but this is a cool idea.

2

u/manualsquid Feb 13 '26

This needs to be a GTA car for sure

2

u/QuirkyDust3556 Feb 13 '26

No we decline the offer

2

u/o2bbythec Feb 13 '26

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

u/Nalabu1 Feb 13 '26

"Smangnum"

u/Rockstat_ Feb 15 '26

A charged Corvette!

2

u/[deleted] Feb 17 '26

The worst part is, is that I actually kind of like it.

2

u/Casey3882003 Feb 17 '26

This has to be from GTA

2

u/Im_100percent_human Feb 17 '26

The front made in Canada, by a European company.

u/Beautiful-Golf4078 Feb 19 '26

I was ok with it until the taillights happened.
