I remember a model kit for a Nomad as a kid, that could be converted to an El Camino.

Yup. This one has the rear window, looks to be, from a 64-67.

Only a karen would care what a guy does with his own property, when it has no impact whatsoever on anyone else.

No. Third gen is curved on the corners. The one in question looks like the back glass out of an IHC Scout II. The really, really ugly second car posted (candy apple red car) actually looks like it has a '64-'67 rear window.
