Vehicle Description
There's just something unmistakably cool about this 1965 Chevrolet
El Camino. It's a practical utility vehicle based on one of the
most potent muscle cars of the era. This one celebrates that nicely
with a great driving package of solid small block power and
four-on-the-floor. And when you look at the cool/correct color
combo and the detailed style, you'll see this is one of the most
distinct Chevys you can get your hands on right now.
Not only is the El Camino's car/pickup style a desirable one, but
this one also has a desirable history. It has a long-term history
in the dry Arizona climate. And when it left the bright sunshine
around 2020, the factory-correct Cypress Green was given a respray.
It's the kind of color we don't see too often, so you get the ideal
situation of attracting attention while styling true to this El
Camino's history. Even the bed received proper attention with
color-matched liner paint. The bed's "smuggler's hatch" that
results from building on a car platform is even hinged on this one
for easier access. Complete brightwork trim, classic Rally wheels,
well-fitting doors, and all the right badging are part of this
car's complete package. And the total appearance gives you the
ideal kind of classic that looks like it loves to be driven out in
the country and letting its green blend in with nature.
More of that cruiser-ready style is seen inside. The
factory-correct Fawn interior has been restored around the same
time as the paint. The upholstery feels supple, the carpeting is
plush, and the dash is smooth. So this is quite an inviting
experience. And there's a good feeling from the driver seat where
your left hand goes on the thin/grippy deal spoke steering wheel,
and your right one instantly finds the floor shifter. It really
feels like a driver's classic.
Just like the rest of the car, underneath the hood is a great mix
of vintage style with the right upgrades. The 350 cubic-inch V8 has
the classic bold orange block and a little extra flair from the
Moroso valve covers and bright air grabber. But as you look a
little closer, you can also see this small block inhales deeply
with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock intake. This
V8 fires eagerly, and the control of the four-speed manual
transmission puts the fun firmly in your hands. It feels good out
on the road thanks to power steering, an updated front sway bar,
Goodyear Wrangler tires, and the easy riding Chevelle rear
suspension.
This El Camino has a distinct look you'll love and a solid driving
attitude that makes it easy to show off everywhere. So if you're
someone who wants to enjoy your classic to the fullest, you know
this is your Chevy. Call now!
