This 1970 Chevrolet El Camino has undergone extensive refurbishments to restore its classic charm while integrating modern upgrades. The restoration was completed in 2021, featuring a stunning new green paint job with white stripes and crucial mechanical upgrades.
Engine and Performance
Under the hood, a replacement 402ci V8 engine pairs seamlessly with a four-speed manual transmission. Upgraded components include a Weiand intake manifold and a Holley four-barrel carburetor, ensuring optimal performance. The suspension and brakes were also overhauled to enhance driving dynamics.
Interior and Features
The interior has been meticulously re-trimmed in black, now featuring bucket seats from a late-model Camaro SS. Modern touches include an aftermarket oil-pressure gauge mounted below the dash. The original two-spoke steering wheel is wrapped for added comfort and fronts a variety of gauges, including a 120-mph speedometer and a tachometer.
Exterior Design
The El Camino retains its classic appeal with a cowl hood, drop-down tailgate, and SS badging. Its 15" American Racing VN501 wheels and quad headlights complete the vintage look while providing a touch of modern flair.
