Vehicle Description
With the handsome good looks of a Chevelle and the utility of a
pickup, the El Camino offers the best of both worlds: performance
and practicality. This 1972 Chevrolet El Camino SS tribute has all
the right features - from bucket seats to a big block V8 - to offer
this tradition at a very desirable price.
This was the final year of the third-gen El Camino. GM would be
closing the book on the now-iconic symbol of Chevy muscle. So this
one represents this legacy properly with all your favorite features
of the Super Sport package, including the dual hood stripes, power
bulge cowl hood, complete SS badging, and correct Super Sport
wheels. And it's all wrapped in the 1972-correct shade of Pewter
Silver. But more than just this sporty personality, this generation
El Camino really has style with the form-fitting chrome bumpers,
nicely integrated tailgate, and plenty of bright trim surrounding
the handy truck bed.
The interior gets all your favorite Super Sport elements right with
a nice set of bucket seats, a center console in-between, and the
iconic horseshoe shifter. Plus, you get the dual-spoke SS steering
wheel that gives you a clear view to the upgraded round gauge
package and the helpful auxiliary readouts. This driver-oriented
dash now also has the convenience of a modern AM/FM/CD stereo.
Under the hood is a 402 cubic-inch V8 that's dressed to impress.
There's plenty of shine on the air topper and valve covers; the
wires and hoses look fresh; and the bold block radiates from within
the dark engine bay. So you know this is the kind of machine made
to lift its hood wherever it parks. But beyond just appearances,
this V8 was built to run. It was rebuilt about 3,000 miles ago, and
so it fires up nicely as the four-barrel carburetor feeds the big
block. The V8 makes a nice growl out of the dual exhaust. All this
power gets to the ground through GM's sturdy TH400 three-speed
automatic transmission on its way to the stout 10-bolt rear end.
Taking this mean machine out for a cruise is no problem with great
driving features such as power steering, power brakes w/discs up
front, and the grip of BF Goodrich T/As at all four corners.
This is the last of the great ones, and it's offered now for quite
a nice price. So don't miss this deal. Call now!
