Nice Pshopping!
I realize it's just an exercise, but I don't think the front end of these trucks are big enough to support the Escalade front end. I don't have a $48k Caddy handy but I think the grille area is taller than the 67-72 grille, bumper, and hood line combined. Also, it seems a little bit too "high tech" for the smoother lines of the truck. My 2 cents Kenneth

How about a 67-68 Truck with the 67-68 Camaro Rally Sport front end. I know there is a picture of a prototype floating around.
Or, how about a 69 Camaro RS front end on one of our trucks!

When I throw the cad engine in my truck, I plan to at least use the cad emblems. I was thinking about either a phantom grill with the escalade symbol, or maybe the new escalade grill cut to fit. A smooth tailgate with the big escalade symbol on it would look great.

doh!!!!!!!!
why did i not start with a 67-68, the hood would have matched up without much modification. oh well! Does anybody have pics of the truck with the 67-69 camaro grille, I searched but they have been deleted. I need to see the proportions of the grilles.

*drool*
WHOA...that looks awesome...
If I end up building another one of these, I think I'd be seriously tempted to do that now that there's a 'good' pic of one.

Why not an El Camino/Eldorado fusion? Would it have front wheel drive or all wheel drive?
