This 1970 Chevrolet El Camino is powered by an LS6 engine and
optioned with the desirable Muncie M22 close ratio 4-speed manual
transmission and a 12-bolt posi-traction rear end with 3.31 gears.
For the 1970 model year, Chevrolet produced 4,000 cars with the
infamous 450hp LS6 454ci V8 engine, but out of those thousands,
only around 500 El Caminos were so-equipped. This vehicle was sold
new at Courtesy Chevrolet in El Paso, TX, and was the recipient of
a complete rotisserie restoration to factory specification,
completed in March 2022. It is finished in a shade of Fathom Blue
with white SS stripes and a rare cowl-induction hood. The vehicle
was optioned with convenience features like power brakes and power
steering and a 6,500 rpm tachometer in the dashboard. This El
Camino is riding on a set of 14-inch 5-spoke SS wheels with
Firestone Wide Oval tires. The interior is finished in medium blue
with a split bench seat and features an AM radio and electric clock
in the dashboard. This is a well-documented example and includes
its original Build Sheet and GM Shipping Data Report, and is logged
in the LS6 Registry.
