Vehicle Description
This 1960 Chevrolet El Camino showcases a bold Roman Red finish
that emphasizes its unique silhouette. The wraparound rear glass,
sporty roof overhang, and tailgate with integrated tailfin create a
distinctive profile. Gray trim accents provide contrast against the
vibrant paintwork. 15" Summit Racing wheels fill the wheel wells,
with 205/70R15 General tires up front and 225/60R15 Cooper tires in
the rear. Chrome trim accentuates the El Camino's lines, while the
bed maintains a clean, barely-used appearance. This model
represents just 1% of Chevrolet's total production on this platform
for 1960, making it a scarce find for collectors.
Black vinyl covers the bench seat, creating a stark contrast with
the exterior color scheme. The dashboard, painted to match the
body, houses AutoMeter gauges for accurate readings. A Retro Sounds
AM/FM/Aux radio blends vintage aesthetics with modern
functionality. The Hurst shifter, complete with its iconic
T-handle, takes center stage on the floor. Aftermarket air
conditioning integrated into the stock controls provides modern
comfort. An armrest with built-in storage and cup holders adds
convenience. New carpets and headliner complete the freshly
restored interior, creating a cohesive and inviting space for
driver and passenger alike.
A 350 V8 crate engine powers this El Camino, a significant upgrade
from the original inline-six. An Edelbrock carburetor sits atop an
Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, paired with shorty headers for
improved breathing. A 4-speed Muncie manual transmission,
controlled by the Hurst shifter, puts the power to the pavement. An
aluminum radiator with electric fans keeps the temperature in check
during spirited driving. Front disc brakes provide strong stopping
power, while power steering ensures easy maneuverability. The dual
exhaust system with aftermarket mufflers produces a deep,
authoritative tone that matches the El Camino's muscular
appearance.
