Ultimus Prime, for 1959!

Major upwards to Carscoop for knowing our taste in glittery, fiberglass-fluffed early 1960s custom work. This '59 El Camino by Tom Holden, dubbed "Ultimus," could be the epitome of space-age futurism. Before there were seven-inch LCD monitors on the consoles of Scion xBs, there was a big black-and-white monitor hard-jammed into still-warm polymer. We can't help but imagine Mr. Holden catching "77 Sunset Strip" while out cruising for pillbox-hatted honeys to lure with promises of Naugahyde and a long, sloe gin fizz for two. Batmobile, please.
