1960 Chevrolet El Camino Description

There has been a lot of work done on this car and there is still a little bit left. Running driving stopping. Just drove it 30 miles and it did fine but it has not been shaken down totally.
-SBC w/ turbo 350. Was told it's a 327. Runs very strong, no smoke. Recent tune up. New battery. 4 BBL Edelbrock is good, New alternator. Fresh tune-up. Unknown mileage.
-New Air ride. Nine switch FBSS with front shock relocation kit. Slow leak present. Gauges installed. Tank and compressors behind fuel tank under the bed. Fuel tank still accessible to install a new one, just replaced the fuel sending unit.
-New Disc brake conversion. Needs one line at front rerouted and pedal a bit soft.(Bleed Brakes). The rear line runs along the body not the frame.
-Rear quarters and floors installed. The floors aren't the best job but will do. The metal strips at the rockers/floor skuffs just cover the wiring and air lines, not structural, A magnet sticks to the whole exterior body. Not a bondo bucket. Some rust at the inside of the tail gate. (Not bad) Paint is semi flat orange. Looks good. Some grease marks from working on the car. Some fiberglass present.( Behind the seat at the hump in the floor). Not a big deal and not visible. The tailgate is operational. Surface rust/discoloration at frame,floors,etc.
-EZ wiring harness and installed. Lights,signals all working. Water temp gauge need a sending unit still. Wiper switch needed. Recent re-wire of complete car including steering column, signals, etc. was done professionally. Will include receipt if desired.
-New 14" Astro Supremes with new tires
-Most trim comes with car. Bunch of extra stuff and parts not installed also. Door seals, interior trim, trim at side fins, etc. Missing the pieces behind the airplane just like every other Elco, Bel air, Impala, Biscayne of this vintage.
-Original bench seat. Needs recover. Have door panels for top piece. Needs dash painted. Could use new glass if you're picky. Drivers side needs installed. Crack in windshield.
-Shorty headers installed Have new bellflower tips to go with as well. The exhaust needs some work. On these X-frames you need to drill a hole in the frame to run the exhaust through so you can lay frame when dropping it. So right now I don't drop it all the way.
Lots of money and time invested in this running driving stopping project. More than the reserve actually. Small stuff left to do. I haven't worked on it awhile so may be forgetting some minor things. Check everything over just like you would with any 57 year old car. Ask questions and I'll take a look. I reserve the right to end the auction early as it's for sale locally. No warranty. As is, where is. I will assist with shipping if I can. Serious bidders only, no bidders with less than 10 feedback.
