    a metric frame is the same no matter what body style is on it.

      '88 and up… any flavor.

      Edit… I meant '78… oops!

      Actually the '73 to '77 would be a better choice IMHO.

          Not sure what models but: 78 and 79 had smaller front spindles and rotors. Some had aluminum trunks and hoods.

                    el camino chassis has boxed in side rails (if I remember right) and the longer wheelbase
                    strength for hauling.....stuff or a$$ ..... your choice.
                    I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.
