The Story of El Camino Sevillano

Here's the car that was a partial inspiration for this blog's title! When I was about 8 years old, my family purchased this 1980 Chevrolet El Camino from my mom's uncle for $500. We had a friend put a simple paint job on it, and my dad and I have been working on it ever since. We've also entered it in several car shows, and have accumulated a handful of "Outstanding In Class" plaques. Some of the major improvements we've made:
- Replaced Engine: Small Block Chevy 305
- Aluminum Intake Manifold
- Replaced Transmission
- Replaced Wheels
Our next big project will be to replace the steering column, as it has slowly developed a major leak.

The title of the blog is also apropos when you consider the translation; El Camino means the way, the path, or the journey. This blog will be a record of my journey in Seville; The Sevillian Journey. I hope you are as pleased with this title as I am; I feel it does a good job of representing both a part of who I am and a part of my upcoming Seville experience!
