Classic Car Overview
1967 Chevrolet El Camino For consignment, a 1967 Chevrolet El Camino, the last of the second generation that received the same facelift as the Chevelle making it a one year design as 1968 would bring huge changes that would round the edges and point the nose. Our example sports a built 350ci V8, some spiffy wheels, and even a USB phone charger in the cabin! Exterior The only color in the car world named after a weasel, Ermine White coats this car and a black stripe on the shoulder line picks up on the black vinyl top and tonneau cover nicely. The wonderfully upright front fascia has double headlights with modern lenses cradled in a grille that is canted forward on the ends over a large chrome grille with turn signals in their center gap. Metal finishes on the front are in great shape, while faux hood vents on power bulges are a tasteful design that adds a bit of muscle to the profile as does the black band across the tailgate between Chevelle tail lights. The cab is decidedly upright with a slightly raked windshield and a back window that is perfectly vertical, like a pickup truck. And speaking of trucks, that long bed extends well beyond the rear axle and made these very useful work trucks long before they became collectible classics. 17-inch Polished American Racing Torque Thrust wheels take up the corners, tucked up into the wheel wells, all in great condition, and the tires have a mid 2022 date code. The bed itself is rough coated and ready for some lumber. The paint, vinyl top, tonneau, and metal work are all nice. Imperfections noted include cracking in the paint, bubbling down low, and a touched up scratch. Interior Horizontal stitched pattern in the door panels extends from top to bottom under a black painted header, all in good shape. A well crafted split bench seat in black is provided for the driver and a guest and the tops can be moved forward to access behind the seats where youll find some clean storage space and that USB charger and 12 volt port. A modern three spoke sport steering wheel has great grip and leads to a standard, horizontal speedometer flanked only by a clock and fuel gauge. A tachometer is mounted to the steering column and a triple gauge package hangs below the dash relaying oil pressure, water temp and volts. An AM/FM radio is present along with climate controls and an external fan, while in the center, wire cup holders are a welcome addition. Black looped carpet is in good shape and the headliner and visors are in perfect condition, except that darn garage door clip indentation. Drivetrain Pop the muscular hood to find a very clean 350ci V8 from 1973, wearing a Holley intake manifold under an Edelbrock 650 cfm 4-barrel carburetor. Theres also an aluminum radiator and electric fan under the hood. Power is sent via a rebuilt 1986 200R4 4-speed automatic transmission with a shift kit to the 10 bolt axle with consignor stated 3.73 conventional gearing, while power disc brakes now occupy the front and power drums in back bring the El Camino to a stop. As mentioned, the bay is very clean, and the polished parts of the engine add to its showiness. Undercarriage Clean and dry underneath with the mostly minimal surface rust and no errant fluids seen. Front end suspension consists of coil springs, and a 4 link and coils are out back while new ball joints and shocks are noted. The dual exhaust flows back to a pair of MagnaFlow mufflers and then exits discreetly behind each rear wheel. Drive-Ability Business up front, party in the back! Or maybe its the other way around? Anyway, we love the small cabin of what otherwise feels like a muscle car! This vintage Ute runs well and provides plenty of power to the rear axle, handling is very good, and braking is more than adequate. Naturally, visibility is astounding with just a hint of a C-pillar. A few things that need attention, including the clock, the reverse lights, the radio, all not working. The heater control is a bit finicky, but arent we all at 58? Anyway, all other functional items work as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase. If you had Tootsie toy cars as a kid, its likely you had the El Camino. You made car noises and maybe even carried some dirt in the bed. You steered the car through the basement carpet along with your Corgis, Matchbox, and Hot Wheels. Well, now you can own the real deal. A true to life 1967 Chevrolet El Camino in weasel white, well sorted, and show worthy. 136807B138881 1-Chevrolet 36-Malibu V8 80-2 Door Sedan Pickup 7-1967 B-Baltimore, MD Assy Plant 138881-Sequential Unit Number TRIM TAG 01A-1st Week January ST 67 13680-1967 Malibu Sedan Pickup BODY BAL2286-Baltimore Body # TR 761-Black Imitation Leather PAINT CC-Ermine White Classic Auto Mall is home to more than 1,000 classic and collectible vehicles for sale via consignment in a climate controlled 336,000-square foot showroom (thats more than 8 acres!).
