For Sale: 1972 Chevrolet El Camino in Columbus, Ohio

28,995

Cruisin Classics is pleased to present to you this 1972 El Camino. This El Camino comes to us today with a nice driver-quality respray in its original color - Orange Flame (65) with black SS hood stripes and a black vinyl top (B). The cowl hood also features "396" badges, hood pins, and bright trim on the rear edge. Beneath is a black horizontal grill with SS badging flanked by round headlights in square bezels. The chrome front bumper below is in excellent condition, as is the one in the rear. Moving around to the side of the car, more bright work comes into focus with windshield trim, drip rail molding, window trim, door edge guards, driver's side mirror, and door handles. Wipers hide away below the cowl hood for a nice, clean look. Both fenders wear "El Camino" and "SS" badges in good condition. The black vinyl top is in excellent condition and looks like new. Bright trim surrounds the bed, which is topped off with a soft black vinyl lift-up tonneau cover with hydraulic strut arms that keep it in place. The bed underneath is very clean and kept nice with a fitted black rubber mat. At the rear, you'll find wrap-around taillights, dual exhaust, and a tailgate with a "Hurst Equipped" badge and black "SS" badged center panel. Completing the look of this mean El Camino is a set of polished 5-spoke REV wheels all wrapped in white-letter Mastercraft Avenger G/T tires.

Pull the pins and lift the hood to reveal a clean and organized engine bay that's home to a healthy 396ci V-8 that date-codes to 1968-69. The orange big block is topped off with chrome valve covers, an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, an Edelbrock AVS2 4-barrel carburetor, and a chrome air cleaner with "396" decal. Other highlights include power steering, a chrome alternator and bracket, and a chrome radiator cover. Exhaust flows through headers and dual mufflers before exiting the tailpipes with an authoritative rumble. Stopping power comes courtesy of power front discs and rear drums. The big V-8 is mated up to a 4-speed Muncie manual transmission (that dates to 1968-70) that sends power to a GM 12-bolt rear with freeway-friendly 3.31 positraction gears and an "SS" rear cover. This El Camino is equipped to do everything from a tire-smoking burn-out to taking a leisurely drive down the highway to a car show in another town.

When you open the driver's door, you're greeted by a very well-presented black interior illuminated by a working courtesy light. The black deluxe door panels feature "SS 396" badges, cranks for both the primary and vent windows, and a driver's mirror toggle. There is some peeling of the decorative silver trim, but they are in otherwise good condition. A black vinyl bench seat in very good condition welcomes you to take a drive. The seat is quite comfortable and has obviously been re-covered. Underfoot is high-quality black hook and loop carpet that's kept nice with a set of black carpeted "SS 396" logo floormats with orange borders. Rising up from the floor is a Hurst shifter with a black boot and a white pattern ball. An "SS" steering wheel fronts a crack-free black dash with nice bright trim around the gauge and instrument bezel. The dash is home to a brand new set of round Dakota Digital gauges, including volts, fuel, temp, oil, as well as an 8K tachometer and a 160mph speedometer. The gauges look great with their red sweeps, and they offer digital readouts that include a clock, digital tach, digital speedometer, 0-60 times, � mile times, and more. Also in the dash are controls for the working 2-speed wipers, working heat and fan, working lighter, and an original-looking AM/FM push-button radio that plays through the dash speakers. Under the dashboard to the driver's right is a trio of Autogage gauges that are inoperable. Ahead of the passenger is a glovebox, and overhead is a tight black perforated vinyl headliner.

If you're on the hunt for a cool old-school El Camino, you're going to want to give this one a serious look! Late 60's big block, 4-speed Muncie, power steering, power brakes, lift-up tonneau cover, Dakota Digital Dash, comfortable and good-looking interior, great wheel and tire combo - this Chevy sure does check a lot of boxes! You sure couldn't build this car for what we're asking for it! Give our friendly staff a call today before someone else snatches this beauty up!
