For Sale: 1972 Chevrolet El Camino in Sherman, Texas

Vehicle Description

Chevrolet's El Camino has always been the perfect blend of muscle car aggression and practical truck utility, and by 1972 it was at its peak swagger. This black-on-black beauty packs the kind of punch that turns a run to the hardware store into an excuse to leave a little rubber behind. With its big-block heart and classic rally stance, this is one of those machines that makes you wonder why the car-truck hybrid ever faded away.

Under the hood lives the original numbers-matching 402 cubic inch big block V8, topped with an Edelbrock carburetor and breathing through dual exhaust. It's hooked to a Turbo 400 automatic transmission, the stoutest unit Chevrolet offered, and shifted via a B&M floor shifter. Power steering and power front disc brakes make it easy to handle, while BFGoodrich Radial T/As wrapped around 15-inch Chevrolet Rally wheels keep it planted with period-correct attitude.

The factory tach and cowl induction hood remind you that this is more muscle car than workhorse. Add in the Old Air Products heat and A/C system, woodgrain steering wheel, RetroSound radio, and upgraded sound system, and you've got modern comfort wrapped in classic cool. A fiberglass bed cover keeps things sleek and protected, making it just as practical today as it was in 1972.

The 1972 El Camino was the last of its generation, marking the end of an era before regulations and fuel concerns began to change the muscle car landscape. Finding one in such well-dialed condition, with its numbers-matching big block intact, is not just rare-it's an opportunity. This isn't a truck for blending in, it's one for showing up and taking charge.

If you're looking for something that can haul a load, light up the tires, and grab attention at every stoplight, this El Camino delivers. It's half muscle car, half pickup, and all attitude.
