1965 Chevrolet El Camino

Gateway Classic Cars Milwaukee is excited to present this 1965 Chevrolet El Camino. Few cars in history are as easily identifiable and loved like the El Camino. Over the 25 model years and 5 generations Chevys half truck half car has proven to be a classic from its early days when it debuted in 1959. The El Camino was created in direct competition to Fords Ranchero that hit the streets in 1957. When the El Camino first came into the market it was built on the Chevrolet X-frame and shared the same engine options and styling as the other big Chevy cars at the time like the Impala and Biscayne. In 1964 the El Camino was completely retooled on the new mid-size Chevelle platform. For the remainder of the El Caminos life it carried on as a midsized vehicle with car styling comparable to the Chevelle/Malibu but with that unmistakable pick-up truck bed.This 1965 Chevrolet El Camino sports a spectacular one-of-a kind paint scheme of red and silver. A meaty set of Cragar 15 chrome wheels chrome dual mirrors and a red tonneau cover are great additions to a dynamite looking truck. The black vinyl interior boosts a custom bench seat with center armrest AM/FM/ cd radio air conditioning and after-market oil/volts/water gauges. Finally under the hood of this beauty is a Tuned Port Injection 5.7 V-8 engine attached to a three-speed automatic transmission. Power steering and power brakes are a nice addition. Whether you are looking for a show piece or a great daily driver this 1965 Chevrolet El Camino surely fits the bill.
