This 1966 Chevrolet El Camino is a well-restored classic that gives
you a sharp-looking style, comfortable features, and a confident
feeling on the road. So if you're looking for one V8 car/truck with
all-around appeal, you need to get to know this Chevy.
This El Camino was upgraded to red later in life, and that means a
more recent investment that gives off a nice shine. As the light
rolls across this car/truck, the uniform gloss also highlights how
straight the sides are. The big chrome bumpers and trim shine
brightly with a look of quality. There was no El Camino Super Sport
in 1966 but they added a touch of that flair during the restoration
with the vented hood trim, blackout grille, and ribbed rockers. The
17-inch American Racing's heritage Torq Thrust wheels add to the SS
feeling with a sporty stance. But even with all these great style
features, this is still a true pickup at its heart. That's why
there's liner paint in the bed to allow for a little more utility
on the weekends.
The black interior shows a sharp style with investments in the
upholstery, carpeting, door panels, and dash pad. It gives it the
appearance of stock but with a far fresher feel. This was a
detail-oriented build where they give you the little things, like
the correct seatback trim and working dome light. You also have the
right well-placed upgrades for a vintage cruiser.
The steering wheel is a newer/grippy sports unit. And the
retro-style radio gives you a modern digital tuner, and it connects
to modern stereo speakers.
The engine bay has a tidy look with smooth inner fenders, newer
components (including hoses,) polished valve covers, and a matching
air grabber. This is a 400 cubic-inch V8 that offers a big block
displacement in small block size, and so it offers a nice amount of
torque. It even has been upgraded with an Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor and an Edelbrock aluminum intake. The V8 fires up
readily with an eagerness that reaffirms the quality driver
feeling. You even have a three-speed automatic transmission, power
steering, power brakes w/discs upfront, and modern tires to make
trips easy.
This is a bright red El Camino with an all-around well-restored
style. It's a looker and a driver, which makes it always in demand.
