(1964-1967) Chevrolet reintroduced an all new, mid-size El Camino
four years later based on the Chevrolet Chevelle. The 1964 model
was similar to the Chevelle two-door wagon forward of the B-pillars
and carried both "Chevelle" and "El Camino" badges, but Chevrolet
marketed the vehicle as a utility model and Chevelle's most
powerful engines were not available. Initial engine offerings
included six-cylinder engines of 194 and 230 cubic inches with
horsepower ratings of 120 and 155, respectively. The standard V8
was a 283 cubic-inch Chevy small block with two-barrel carburetor
and 195 horsepower with optional engines including a 220-horsepower
283 with four-barrel carburetor and dual exhausts. Added to the El
Camino's option list during the course of the 1964 model year were
two versions of the 327 cubic-inch small block V8 rated at 250 and
300 horsepower the latter featuring a higher compression ratio of
10.5:1, larger four-barrel carburetor and dual exhausts. El Caminos
also featured air shocks in the rear, as well as fully boxed
frames. The shocks were continued over all generations, the frames
only thru 1967. During that same year 1964 that this beautiful
silver bullet rolled off the assembly line gas was only .30 cents a
gallon. And the Rolling Stones toured for the first time as the
headliner. The worldwide El Camino popular jingle: "The front is
like a car, the back is like a truck, the front is where you sit,
the back is where you f$#!" Another jingle, composed by Billy Ray
Cyrus is "Business in the front, party in the back, just like my
hair." To view the car in greater detail, including an HD video and
