I own three El Caminos in various states of work. When researching parts needed for my 80 SS El Camino Project (Crystal Blue Persuasion) I fought with the idea of installing the chopped up harness back in it that came out of it. I'd heard some about Painless but never really gave it much interest. I wanted a Factory fit as much as possible and nothing was out there for an El Camino. So in restification fashion, I decided to see what other choices I had. I was finally led to Painless Performance's Web site. I chose the 18 Circuit Harness keyed for the GM column. It seemed to have what I was looking for but it wasn't specific to my Elky. I fretted over the choice a lot. I noticed that Painless was a "Home Town" manufacturer, my home town. Sad as it may be to say, that was the deciding factor! I figured if all else failed I may be able to contact Painless easier than most being it's right here in my back yard. I've been working on my 8 SS project for about 5 years now. I've had to stop from time to time to handle other of life's little issues but it's coming along. 2007 will mark the end of the 80 SS project finally. I've managed to collect all the toys and get most everything done necessary and now I'm pretty much free to just dedicate time to my 80 Elky and complete that project. Painless is a big part of that! I've noticed a lot of new products I will be able to use instead of making up my own wiring. The Halogen Head-light harness pack will suit my lighting, I'm upgrading my lights to halogen the 6 pack relay bank will come in very handy for my bed lid and tail gate lifts, and some other necessities and upgrades. The Battery Cable kits will keep me from making my own cables for relocating my battery into the bed buddy I'm making for my Elky. Most anything I need is pre-made now by Painless and that is cool and saves me time. I'll still need to make up some of the custom harnesses but the bulk of my wiring is all taken care of using the items Painless has in their catalog.
