Choo Choo Custom owners
A recent post by member Bozo stated the he owned a 1983 El Camino Choo Choo Custom. I am doing research on CCC production numbers and would like to hear more about his truck.

Re: Choo Choo Custom owners
OOOoookay...How about a reply from "ANY" Choo Choo Custom owner? CCC officially folded in July 2009. Any records of production numbers are long gone. So, I have established a data base and I am entering info from copies of the recertification decals located on the drivers side door jamb(body). I currently have entries for Chevy K5 blazers, Crewcab duallys, 1500 p/u's, and one GMC S-15 Jimmy.

Re: Choo Choo Custom owners
Jitteryguy, thanks for recertification decals pictures. This is how to verify that you own a "real" Choo Choo Custom.
Andrewmp6, those numbers, in my opinion, are for all CCC series thus (unaudited). I think an "audited" version would reveal the actual production numbers by each series, El Camino, 1500's, Crewcabs, Blazers, etc. When I spoke with Joe Lambardo , CEO of Honest Charley's in July 2012, he said all production documents were lost. So, here I am doing my research. NOTE:The highest numbered El Camino I have in my data base is #2234 built in July 1987. |
