AWESOME BUILD W/ LOTS OF CUSTOM WORK ALL AROUND! 454 V8, 700R4, PWR STEER/BRAKES

1967 Chevrolet El Camino Description

We've had a bunch of El Caminos lately, and this 1967 example is one that brings everything to the party: big block power, overdrive, and that awesome paint that really makes it stand out. It's probably too nice to work on weekends anymore, but if you like collecting big trophies, the bed will certainly be able to carry them home for you. Oh, and check out the very reasonable price!At the foundation of that paint job there's a Black Cherry base, but even with the wild graphics on top there's no denying the muscle that lives underneath. It's led an easy life because the sheetmetal is in great shape with no signs that it was ever a work truck, although after all the money that was spent on the bodywork, you'd expect any previous issues to be completely erased. The paint is two-stage urethane, so it's durable and easy to maintain, and the guys who did the work were consummate professionals because it's absolutely spectacular in every way. The lines between the colors are crisp, the breaks are laser-straight, and the final finish was color sanded and buffed to an incredible shine. The chrome and stainless trim is almost all new, and speaking of the bed, it has been finished with a stunning oak floor that absolutely transforms it from ordinary to wow! It's really hard not to like this car.The black interior features a pair of custom GS-1 high-back bucket seats with 5-point harnesses and a beautifully finished instrument panel that uses contrasting red paint to make it stand out. The rest of the interior appears to be new, too, from the carpets to the door panels, and that mahogany steering wheel warms it up without looking out of place. Auto Meter Sport-Comp auxiliary gauges keep an eye on the big block's vitals and the B&M shifter manages a built 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. A modern AM/FM/cassette stereo system with a 100-watt amplifier really fills the compact cabin with sound but didn't require any cutting in the dash. Power windows were added with switches neatly stashed under the dash and, well, there's really not much to complain about here; this car is every bit as spectacular as it looks.The engine is a 454 cubic inch V8 with an .030 overbore and more than 500 horsepower on tap. Equipped with a Comp Cams mechanical roller valvetrain, Eagle rods and crank, Speed-Pro pistons, the bottom end is built for combat, while an Edelbrock Torker II intake manifold and Demon carburetor handle the air/fuel mix. Supporting gear includes a GM Racing distributor, a giant aluminum radiator with electric fans, and a whole lot of chrome and polished aluminum. The firewall is smoothed with a sheet of polished stainless and all the accessories are chrome as well. Ceramic-coated headers feed a custom Flowmaster dual exhaust system with turn-downs just ahead of the rear axle, so it sounds spectacular. The aforementioned 700R4 was built for the rigors of the big block's torque and feeds a 10-bolt rear end with 3.73 gears and an Eaton Posi inside. 2-inch lowering springs were used in conjunction with Air Lift air bags out back to fine-tune the stance and custom adjustable upper and lower billet aluminum control arms keep it all centered and pinned down. 17-inch Torque Thrust wheels look idea and carry staggered 205/40/17 front and 275/40/17 rear performance radials.This is one of the most incredible El Caminos we've ever featured. Show-quality paint, a thundering powerplant, and that shockingly affordable price all guarantee that this one won't sit for very long. Don't hesitate, call today!
