6.0L GM LS V8 | 4L60E Overdrive Automatic | Vintage Air | Dakota
Digital | Four-Wheel Disc Brakes
Collectible Motorcar of Atlanta is proud to present this
beautifully built 1964 Chevrolet El Camino LS Restomod. Finished in
eye-catching PPG Victory Red, this first-generation El Camino
combines timeless Chevrolet styling with the reliability,
performance, and comfort of a modern LS-powered drivetrain.
The body is exceptionally straight with excellent panel fit and a
deep, glossy finish that gives the truck an impressive presence
from every angle. Bright chrome trim, polished bumpers, and 17-inch
chrome Ridler wheels complement the vibrant paint, while the
lowered stance provides a clean, aggressive look without
sacrificing drivability.
Power comes from a dependable GM 6.0-liter LS V8 backed by a 4L60E
four-speed automatic overdrive transmission, delivering modern
reliability, excellent street manners, and effortless highway
cruising. Opening the hood reveals a clean, well-organized engine
compartment with body-color inner fenders and firewall, a
factory-style LS intake, color-matched engine covers, aluminum
radiator, polished cold-air intake, modern wiring, and tasteful
plumbing that reflects the quality of the build rather than simply
hiding components.
Driving dynamics have been substantially upgraded with CPP tubular
front control arms, sway bars, power steering, and four-wheel power
disc brakes. Combined with the modern drivetrain, these upgrades
make this El Camino feel significantly more refined than its 1960s
origins.
Inside, the cabin has been restored with a tasteful custom
appearance while preserving the original design. The tan full
leather bench seat features clean vertical pleated stitching with
matching door panels and a coordinated dash pad that contrasts
beautifully against the Victory Red interior metal. Dakota Digital
VHX gauges provide modern instrumentation with crisp white faces
and digital odometer/trip displays while maintaining a
period-correct appearance. Vintage Air climate control keeps the
cabin comfortable, and the painted steering column with matching
red steering wheel ties the interior together beautifully. The
headliner is tight and clean, and the interior presents with very
little visible wear.
One of the standout features is the cargo bed, finished with an LMC
hardwood bed kit featuring polished stainless bed strips. The wood
finish is rich and glossy, giving the rear of the truck an upscale
presentation that's equally at home at local cruise nights or
national-level shows.
Underneath, the truck continues to impress. The chassis appears
clean and solid with upgraded suspension components, tidy exhaust
routing, aluminum transmission cooler, and a professionally
installed dual exhaust system with Flowmaster mufflers. The
undercarriage shows evidence of a driven, properly maintained
vehicle rather than an over-restored trailer queen.
An extensive folder of receipts, invoices, build documentation, and
service records accompanies the truck, providing valuable history
of the build and maintenance.
Condition
Based on the photographs, this El Camino presents exceptionally
well throughout.
Paint retains excellent gloss and depth with straight body
panels.
Chrome and stainless trim show very nicely.
Engine compartment is detailed and professionally finished.
Interior upholstery, headliner, dash, and door panels appear
excellent.
Hardwood bed floor is beautifully finished with only minimal signs
of use.
Wheels present very well, with the polished finish showing
nicely.
The underside is clean and organized, reflecting a quality
build.
As expected on a driven classic, there are a few very minor signs
of use visible upon close inspection, including a handful of light
marks on portions of the undercarriage and suspension components. I
do not see any significant paint flaws, rust concerns, damaged
trim, torn upholstery, or obvious cosmetic defects in the provided
photographs.
