1971 Chevrolet El Camino

In today’s automotive landscape, most spectators like to make hard distinctions between cars and trucks. Maybe it’s an adverse reaction to excellent crossovers continually gaining share. Maybe its insecurity over sedans slowly becoming a niche product. Or maybe it’s fear of electricity and autonomy completely redefining what a car is. Whatever the case, cars and trucks have always emanated from a common wellspring. That said, NOWHERE has this all-inclusive mindset been cooler, or more successful, than Chevrolet’s storied El Camino. And this sharp original Camino is a choice classic that combines a Chevrolet Performance 350 V8 with an automatic transmission and timeless, all-American appeal!

El Caminos were a consistent seller for Chevrolet, especially popular with ranchers in the Southwest. The combination of 3-passenger seating and 800-pound load capacity appealed to those who worked for a living, but wanted a comfortable vehicle that wasn’t as “”truck-y”” as a pickup. Sound like you? This very original, performance enhanced El Camino may be just your ticket.
