Vehicle Description
We know you already love the look of a deep, dark 1970 Chevrolet El
Camino, but look a little closer at this SS. Although we do not
have the buildsheet to prove it is a real SS, the "L" on the cowl
tag makes it likely. It has the presentation of a real SS, a
performance LS5 big block, and a freshness all around (including
the undercarriage) that proves they built this one to be truly
enjoyed on the open road.
The black paint makes such a bold first impression, and it kicks
off the long list of large investments made in this El Camino. And
we know exactly why this deserves that kind on time/money/effort.
After all, 1970 has the single-year face of arguably the most
celebrated icon of the muscle car era. So it needs to be treated
with respect. That's why you not only get a mirror-like black, but
also they made sure the panels lined up nicely before the first
drop of paint went on. Even the white SS stripes are painted on.
That's why the sunlight loves to dance seamlessly across the body.
There's a premium feeling to this classic in everything from the
black vinyl roof to the super-slick chrome bumpers. But there's
also an undeniable aggression in this one thanks to the dark SS
grille, correct Mag-style wheels, lock-down pins, and the genuine
cowl induction hood.
The full black interior joins the exterior paint and vinyl roof to
deliver the ultra-desirable triple-black total package. And just
like the exterior, there's a freshness here that lets you know they
have cared for this classic. This has all the vintage performance
elements you want, including bucket seats, a center console
in-between, horseshoe shifter, dual-spoke SS steering wheel, and
the full round gauge package with large speedo and tach. Plus, you
see some great subtle upgrades. A larger water temp readout has
been cleanly installed, and there's a retro-style AM/FM digital
tuner. And while you have upgraded music in this Chevy, we really
know your favorite soundtrack begins under the hood.
The engine bay continues this classic's exceptional fresh and crisp
look. This 454 cubic-inch big block has all the right pieces in
place, like the bold orange block, bright valve covers, and the
gasket around that air grabber to seal it to the cowl induction
hood. And as you look a little closer, you're going to spot some
nice performance upgrades, including an Edelbrock intake and a new
Holley four-barrel carburetor. This V8 fires up readily and makes a
terrific sound with the newer H-pipe dual exhaust setup. And the
TH400 three-speed automatic transmission is stout enough to deliver
all the power to the 12-bolt Positraction rear end. And as you look
at the undercarriage photos, you'll not only see nice features like
sway bars front & rear, but plenty of components that look fresh
from investment - right down to the urethane bushings. That all
this results in an extra solid feeling on the road you don't get
from many classics. Plus, with power steering and power brakes
w/discs up front, this is a powerful El Camino that's also easy to
show off near or far.
The sale comes complete with owner's manual and maintenance
records. This is the cut-above icon you've been waiting for, and
it's ready to run right now. So don't miss out, call today!
