For Sale: 1970 Chevrolet El Camino in Ft Worth, Texas

We love the El Caminos from this era. They had the same face and ride as the legendary Chevelles, but they did it in smaller production numbers. They also arguably did it with more flair than the Chevelle with the way this 1970 Chevrolet El Camino SS 454 Tribute has a hint of the flying buttress at the rear window that the coupes lost a few years prior. But you're not interested in the elegance of this one. Instead, you can tell that it gets the Super Sport tribute style right. The sleek hugger Orange Paint is a GM muscle car/truck favorite. The sporty cowl hood contains the performance-built big block power within. The bucket-seat interior has a driver-oriented feel. And take some time to look at all the suspension investments underneath. Plus, there are some fun details you can only get in an El Camino, like how painted the bed a practical black can go so well with sporty features like the blackout grille and painted racing stripes.

The bright finish and awesome stance already make this one a ton of fun. But it also doesn't take much to see the investment made sure there was a ton of substance behind the style. Tubular A-arms, boxed rear arms, and a stout 12-bolt Positraction rear end really know how to make the most of this enhanced big block power. So it's an all-around solid driver that also always feels like it's ready to add some serious thunder to the streets. We bet you're more likely to continue to treat this with a high degree of respect and less like a quarter-mile burner. Still, the heart of the appeal is just how much earned intimidation this one brings to the blacktop even when you're just out cruising. Call today!!!
