Next-to-last model year for El Camino One of 19,231 El Caminos made in 1986 Black exterior with black and gray interior 305 CID small-block Chevy V-8 engine with dual exhausts Turbo Hydramatic four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive Dual exhausts Power steering, power brakes and tilt steering column 5 cubic feet of cargo space and 1,250-pound payload Custom tonneau bed cover, side rails Rear wheels skirts and custom wheel coversTwo vehicles in one, all the comfort and convenience of a traditional two-door sedan with room for one or two passengers with the utility of a pickup truck plus a modest hauling/towing capacity. That summed up Chevrolet's El Camino and we have a 1986 model here at MotoeXotica Classic Cars.
Finished in black, the vehicles paint and trim are in overall good shape, as are the glass panels, which are intact, haze-free and tinted all around. The El Camino's lights are in great shape and it rolls on radial tires, size 215/70R14 at all four corners, surrounding custom wheel covers.
All of the vehicle's body panels are straight and solid. The cargo bed is in good condition, comes with a custom tonneau cover and side rails that have a few blemishes visible. This car/truck hybrid also features rear wheel skirts that may have either been a factory or dealer option in 1986. The bumpers are in overall good condition but the top of the rear bumper shows some blemishes. The engine bay is tidy and the battery looks very good.
Under the hood with the Lund twin hood scoops is a Chevy's 305 CID small-block V-8 engine, with a custom air cleaner and breathing through dual exhausts. The engine is mated to a Turbo-Hydramatic four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive. Driver convenience features include power steering, power brakes and tilt steering column.
Inside, the bench seat has been reupholstered in new black and silver and is in overall good condition. The gray carpet is in decent order and the complementing headliner also looks good. The air-conditioning is inoperable but the two-tone black and gray instrument panel has almost full instrumentation and shows no cracking or peeling. The original two-spoke steering wheel is present and in fair condition. The inner door panels look good and as a whimsical touch, the door lock plungers are topped with pulls shaped like dice. The mirror glass and gear shifter are both in good order. Completing the interior is a factory Delco-Bose AM/FM stereo with cassette deck.
The Chevrolet El Camino was made between 1959-60 and 1964-87. The 1978 through 1987 El Caminos were produced in five trim levels: Classic, Black Knight (1978) /Royal Knight (1979-83), Conquista and Super Sport and shared chassis components with the Chevrolet Malibu.
The 1982 through 1987 El Camino sported a new frontal appearance with a crosshatch grille flanked by quad rectangular headlights. For 1985, GM shifted El Camino production to Mexico and the new 4.3L V-6 engine was standard through 1987. Changes for 1986 included a new instrument panel and revised gauge cluster graphics.
Competition to this Chevrolet in 1986 included Chevrolet's own S-10 light-duty pickup, Ford's Ranger pickup, Dodge's Ram 50 pickup, GMC's S-15 pickup, Mazda's B2000 pickup, Mitsubishi's Mighty Max pickup, Nissan's Hardbody D21 pickup and Toyota's Hilux pickup.
