For Sale: 1979 Chevrolet El Camino in Mesa, Arizona

Vehicle Description

The El Camino has an interesting social status that gives it plenty of personality. After all, it's hard not to love a vehicle that's both a comfy cruiser and a versatile pickup. But when it's been given an upgraded 350 V8, custom paint, a loaded A/C interior, and a custom SS-style look - well then, the desire for this 1979 Chevrolet El Camino reaches far beyond its affordable price.


You already know there was a ton spent on the paint. The Sunburst Orange was borrowed from the Hummers, and it has the exact right kind of shine you want to draw attention to a custom like this. After all, they also invested heavily in the bodywork. It has a custom aerodynamic SS-style front end from the later years, shaved door handles, a flush rear roll pan, and a smooth hard tonneau cover. The result is a very sleek-looking machine. And they really got the standout details right with the full custom pinstriping package, billet grille, and polished torque thrust-style wheels. Plus, everyone will be talking about those awesome Cadillac taillights that are so well integrated that they look like this came from the factory that way. Even with all these great looks, this El Camino still has a practical side. That's why there's liner paint in the truck bed.


The driver's door is opened by the popper on your key fob, and that's always a cool sight to show off. This is also your gateway to a comfy loaded interior. You get plush velour that lets you choose between seating three across or folding the individual armrests for a bucket-level of comfort. It comes with the features you really want, like power windows, an AM/FM/CD stereo with aux input, and ice-cold air conditioning. The factory dual-spoke steering wheel is on a tilt column, and it gives you a great view of the full gauge panel, including large speedo and tach.


The engine bay is quite shiny. The polished air topper, valve covers, alternator, compressor, piping, upgraded pulleys, and so much more look terrific against the gloss black engine bay. And when you look beyond the style, you'll see the substance of a 350 cubic-inch V8 with performance upgrades like a Holley dual-feed four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, and an HEI distributor. The dual exhaust has a great sound, and you'll enjoy it plenty because this one was truly built for motoring. There have been enhancements like a Hotchkis rear suspension upgrade, power steering, and front disc brakes. And the 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive makes it a great cruiser for trips near or far.


Complete with owner's manual, this is the ideal classic that has been given solid investments for show and go. So at a price like this, you know this custom won't stay here long. Call today!!!
