Vehicle Description
Over the years, GM's Chevrolet division has built some interesting
cars. However, there are few of those that can match the coolness
factor of the El Camino - much less the kind that this specific
1972 Chevrolet El Camino brings to the table. This sweet Chevy is
on the showroom floor combining a V8 under the hood and stanced-up
style to dial this El Camino's coolness factor up to eleven.
Sitting in the engine bay is a massive V8 breathing through a
4-barrel carburetor, a vocal combination that screams when you put
your foot to the floor. Torque is stomped into the pavement through
a smooth-shifting automatic transmission, which shifts seamlessly
as this El Camino hooks up to the road. The exterior's straight
bodylines are covered in an attractive bright red paintjob, which
has a good-looking shine in the sun. That same bright red paint is
complimented by gorgeous chrome brightwork and a pair of subtle "El
Camino" decals on the front quarterpanels and rear tailgate!
Stepping into the interior reveals fantastic black vinyl trim over
comfy aftermarket bucket seats, perfect for cruising to your next
car show. Options on this aggressive '72 El Camino include power
steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, air conditioning,
Edelbrock valve covers and air filter, a serpentine belt system, an
aluminum radiator, a raised rear end (to fit bigger tires), bed
liner, a cowl hood, factory style gauges & tachometer, an
aftermarket Grant GT steering wheel, a B&M "T-Grip" shifter,
aftermarket bucket seats, a vintage-style AM/FM radio, a
driver's-side chrome mirror, vent windows, and a mean-sounding dual
exhaust system with an intimidating growl. The car rides on a sleek
set of Weld wheels over blackwall tires, skinny up front and fat in
the rear for maximum grip off the line. The minute you're behind
the wheel of this El Camino, it becomes very clear just how
excellently it runs and drives. After all, the combination of a V8
and an automatic transmission is tough to beat! If you're looking
to turn heads up and down the street as well as at your next car
show, there isn't a whole lot out there that will do the job better
than this 1972 El Camino.
