1965 Chevrolet El Camino Description

This 1965 Chevrolet El Camino is one of those cars that brings a smile to everyone's face. A practical utility vehicle based on one of the most potent muscle cars of the era, complete with a numbers-matching small block, cool subtle ghost flames, A/C interior, and an upgraded four-speed overdrive transmission. And now that you've seen the price on this restored El Camino, you might not have enough time to finishing reading this before it's gone.
There was a serious investment in the El Camino, and you can tell it from the moment you see how straight the sheetmetal is. But there's much more here than going over half a century being treated with respect. During the restoration it was given a professional application of its factory-correct Mist Blue, but with this modern application also came a cool upgrade to subtle ghost flames in the hood. Now you have the spirit of originality that's been upgraded to a terrific clearcoat. Even the truck bed shines with a look-at-me quality. This transformation would not be complete without the chrome and stainless trim looking immaculate on everything from the wide grille, to the mirror-like bumpers, to the half-moon wheel covers.
The moment you open the door, you'll swear it's 1967, and that's for a very good reason. The complete restoration included putting the factory interior back to period-correct spec. The factory-correct fawn split-bench has the kind of cushioning that feels like no one else ever sat here before. The door panels, carpeting, dash, and steering wheel are all in a coordinating hue. And speaking of the wheel, the dual-spoke factory unit has an intricate design, and it gives you a clear view to the full gauge panel where everything works even the clock! Keen eyes will notice a few upgrades, like the retro-style radio that disguises a modern digital AM/FM tuner and cassette player. And the air conditioner is a period-correct Sears unit (cool, right?) that's still pumping out ice-cold air.
The engine is the original, numbers-matching 327 cubic-inch V8 that has been well-dressed for duty in the El Camino's engine bay. Satin black inner fenders are a great background for the Chevy Orange block and valve covers. Add in the polished air topper and all the right decals, and it's an award-worthy presentation. The V8 inhales deeply through a four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with authority through the stainless dual exhaust. More than just look tidy and powerful, this EL Camino was upgraded to be a true driver. You have a four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, power steering, and an aluminum radiator to keep it all running cool even when you're in traffic with the A/C pumping.
Lovers of originality will like to know that all the major components that were replaced come with the sale, including the wheels, radiator, Powerglide transmission, and so much more.

And all this vintage desirability is available now at quite a nice price. Don't miss out, call today!!!
