Thoroughly well configured and packing plenty of power, along with
an ultra-sharp looking exterior, this 1969 Chevrolet El Camino is
one of those rare classics that can effortlessly motor to a local
car show and cruise away with some hardware while providing a top
notch driving experience along the way. This is an outstanding
representative of Chevy's revolutionary half-truck/ half-car model
and it also features a well-thought out, comfortable interior
boasting a killer sound system.
El Caminos were designed to combine the functionality of a truck
with the drivability and appointments of a car and this Chevy
maximizes the aesthetics on the model's one of a kind form. It's
decked out in a great paint job - the Hugger Orange color it wears
was a signature shade back in its era and was voted one of the
coolest colors of all time in a study conducted by collector car
insurance company Haggerty. It's in fine form, with a consistently
slick texture and a deep shine. The muscle car sensibilities are
obvious here - when viewed from the front, the Chevelle-like
appearance will strike you right away - and the aggressive cowl
scoop on the hood seems right at home in this setting. The
functionality aspect of the model is no mere novelty, as the rear
cargo area is long and broad, with plenty of space between the
wheel wells, and a rubber mat lines its floor. With the exception
of the modified hood and a set of jaw-dropping aftermarket wheels,
the car is in stock configuration and the collection of chrome it
wears is in excellent condition.
Inside, you'll find a very nicely equipped, fresh-looking interior
sporting its original black hue and benefits from a number of
inspired upgrades that blend nicely with surrounding stock
elements. A pair of Pro Car bucket seats take their place at the
center of the cockpit, showing no marked signs of wear as they
straddle a fully custom center console that puts a collection of
speakers in perfect position as they pair with a subwoofer cabinet
mounted behind the seat to fill the cabin with the sounds of an
AM/FM/stereo with Bluetooth and iPod connectivity. Farther back, a
set of nicely integrated control switches sit with easy reach of
the driver. A stout aftermarket steering wheel is now perched on
the column and just beyond it the instrument panel carries a full
complement of new digital gauges.
The sight of skilled workmanship never grows tiresome, and that's
just what we have here.
A 350 cubic inch V8 is underneath the steel cowl hood, supplying
plenty of smooth, dependable power. It's fed by a 4-barrel Holley
carb stacked on an Edelbrock intake manifold, with electronic
ignition on board to maximize all-weather dependability. The potent
engine sits in a well-maintained compartment and has received a
number of new components to increase its dependability, including
its timing chain and cover, rear main seal and oil pan gasket.
Behind it is a 3-speed automatic TH350 transmission that's shifting
in top form, while at the front of the engine bay you'll find a
sizable, 3-core aluminum radiator that's accompanied by dual
electric fans to keep operating temperatures in check. Four-wheel
power disc brakes with drilled and slotted rotors that work in
tandem with a new booster will supply all the fade resistant
stopping ability you'll need as this well-configured classic
cruises on its set of 17" Ridler wheels.
If you're on the hunt for a distinctive muscle car that features a
great combination of smile-inducing power, interior comfort and
magnetic curb appeal, you need to see this 1969 Chevrolet El
Camino. Call today!
