1972 Chevrolet El Camino in Dearborn, Michigan

Vehicle Description

Up for sale in our Detroit showroom is this highly collectable 1972 Chevrolet El Camino SS. The El Camino concept was created in 1959 in response to the popular Ford Ranchero and had a successful but brief 2 year run returning as the second generation model in 1964. This third generation El Camino SS is equipped with a numbers matching 454cid engine that you can catch a glimpse of when the cowl induction hood allows more air flow into the engine bay. Backing up this big block is a 400 Turbo transmission delivering power to a highway friendly 3.23 rear end gear ratio. It is becoming more unusual to see El Caminos on the road than ever before and they are prized by collectors for not only the great look but functionality of having a full pickup bed and the driving habits of a car. This example is one of the nicest you are sure to come across and features a very high quality paint job finished in Ascot Blue with Black SS stripes on the hood. The factory rally wheels have been treated during the rotisserie restoration and look absolutely stunning. On the inside you will notice an original interior with the addition of a modern stereo to bring this El Camino into the future. The black vinyl buckets look great in contrast to the Mulsanne Blue. Options on this El Camino include power steering, power brakes, AM/FM CD stereo, SS Steering wheel, horseshoe shifter and Air Conditioning.
