[edit] Customized photos of El Caminos

The photographs included with this article are inappropriate, as they depict customized versions of the car. Since this is an encyclopedia article about the Chevrolet El Camino, I would think it would be appropriate to include factory stock photos of the car rather than customized (or scale models) of said vehicle, to show readers what the car looked like when new. Let's have an editor go out, obtain some factory stock photographs of the cars (whether original factory promotional pictures or restored-to-stock models), and replace the pictures of the customized cars.

I agree with that assessment; however, I challenge you to find photos of El Caminos on Commons or Flickr that aren't modified. The vast majority of Elkys, for whatever reason, seem to have custom rims of some sort. Also, factory photos are still verboten for the time being, as GM has not made their licensing policy very clear as to non-commercial usage. My biggest problem with this article, though, is more in regards to its lack of organization and LOTS of missing data. I'll do what I can to remedy some of that eventually. In the meantime, feel free to check out my GMC Caballero page - which, thanks to a source I've found, should have some actual Caballero photos arriving soon.
