Q: Chevrolet Monte Carlo production to end in June?
General Motors has confirmed production of its Monte Carlo coupe will end early this summer. The last orders will be taken in early May, and assembly at Canada’s Oshawa plant will stop on June 20th.

Thanks to a model update and new V8 engine, sales of the front-wheel-drive Monte Carlo were up slightly in 2006, but fell significantly early this year (down 60 percent in January). GM expects the 2008 Malibu to cut into potential Monte Carlo sales further, making now a good time to axe the coupe.

While GM hasn’t commented on the future of the nameplate, product chief Bob Lutz said in March GM’s new rear-wheel-drive Zeta platform would be used for a new Monte Carlo, along with the upcoming Camaro, Impala, GTO, and Buick Statesman (now believed to be on hold). At the time, Lutz also said a new El Camino was possible — a proposal that is gaining steam, according to recent reports.

A: they are just stopping production so they can change over the plant from the w-body to the new zeta platform. the large coupe will be built off that platform once everything is back up and running.
the new platform is rwd again also.

Q: Could GM change the truck they use in the Craftsman Truck Series if they choose to bring this beast back?

I don’t believe it, but the more I look into it, the more I think it’s going to happen. The El Camino could be making its return to the GM line in the United States for sale as soon as 2009, or as late as 2011.

Is this just a creative way to lose money? or do you think GM will have success in bringin’ back the El Camino?

I have always loved El Caminos.. they had there distinct uglier models as well, but I still ALWAYS wanted one as a kid growing up. (I also had the notion I’d have a Harley Davidson to put in the back lol)…. Anyways, Just wanted everyone elses input on if they think this venture would sink or swim for GM?

AND… If it did happen, could GM use the El Camino in the Craftsman Truck Series? It’s considered a truck… I think

A: Unfortunately, every sanctioning body I have dealt with has considered Elkies, and Rancheros as neither cars nor pick-ups. That really sucks, because I thought I had a really good way to “cheat” with my aerodynamics, making the bed of a Ranchero nothing more than a giant wing.

BTW, that’s not a bad looking vehicle, but I’m still partial to Ford’s Falcon Ute down under!!!
