1972 Chevrolet El Camino

Cruisin Classics is proud to present to you this simply awesome 1972 Chevrolet El Camino. This sure isnt your run-of-the-mill El Camino this is a numbers-matching 402ci big block car with a numbers-matching 3-speed automatic transmission, Fitech fuel injection, cold factory air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, gleaming chrome trim, slick paint, a cowl hood, a stunning houndstooth interior, and only 46,442 actual miles! This beauty checks all the boxes! This El Camino comes to us dressed in a glossy and bright coat of Cranberry Red paint (GM#2189) in good driver condition with painted black SS stripes. The car was originally an Antique White car with Placer Gold upper and lower sections but the only evidence of that today is what is stamped on the trim tag. The front end of the car is a real eye-catcher with a cowl hood with Cowl Induction badges and a set of bright hood pins. The good looks continue with bright bezels surrounding the large Power-Beam single unit headlights, bright trim around the side marker lights, a 4-bar horizontal grille with a centered SS badge, and a mirror-finish bumper with bumper guards. While this El Camino wears SS badging there is no way to tell if it was born an SS car without documentation (only 454ci cars were mandatorily equipped with the SS package). Looking down the sides of the car youll see that the body is exceptionally straight with good panel fitment. Just like the front of the car, the sides feature their share of brilliant brightwork including wheel lip molding, drip rail molding, window trim, door handles, bed rail trim, and SS fender badges. Adding to the sporty side view are dual color-keyed side mirrors. Around the back, youll find another gleaming bumper, dual chrome exhaust tips, a red tailgate with a black horizontal band and integrated reverse lights, brightly trimmed taillights, and a clean bed with a fitted black rubber mat to keep it nice. This whole gorgeous package sits proudly atop a set of steel Rally wheels with center caps and beauty rings, all wrapped in Mastercraft Avenger GT tires a perfect combination for the look of this El Camino! Pull the pins and lift the cowl hood to find a tidy and organized black engine bay with a big orange 402ci V-8 at the center. The paint has been scraped off of the front engine tab, making it very easy to see the numbers that verify this car was born with this engine. This big block is topped off with chrome Chevrolet logo valve covers, FiTech fuel injection, and a chrome Chevrolet air cleaner. Exhaust flows through cast manifolds, newer pipes, and newer Flowmaster mufflers before exiting the chrome tips with a satisfying rumble. Other highlights under the hood include power steering, power brakes (front discs/rear drums), and working factory A/C. The big V-8 is mated to the original numbers-matching TH400 3-speed automatic transmission. When you open the drivers door youre greeted by a working courtesy light that illuminates a jaw-droppingly cool black and white houndstooth interior. This interior was not an option for the 72 El Camino, but when you see how good it looks youll wonder why not! The door panels feature padded black vinyl with black & white houndstooth cloth inserts, OEM-style armrests, and window cranks. A shining sill plate leads to a newer black carpet that welcomes you inside. The comfortable black vinyl bench seat mimics the door panels with houndstooth cloth inserts and offers seatbelts for 3 passengers. The black padded vinyl dash pad is in excellent condition and looks like new. The dash is home to a 120mph speedometer, a fuel gauge, and an analog clock. Several aftermarket gauges have been added; an SW trans oil temp gauge and an Equus water temp gauge have both been installed in the dash while an Autometer vacuum gauge is mounted under the dash. Speaking of under the dash, a battery cut-off button has been added for security and to preserve battery life. Also found on the dash are the original Delco AM push-button radio (inop.) and factory climate controls that operate the cold A/C, hot heat, and working fan. If youre looking for an El Camino, its going to be impossible for you to not want to stop and take a hard look at this beautiful example! This car fires right up every time (courtesy of the fuel injection) and runs as good as it looks. Its tough to find one of these big block El Caminos with a numbers-matching drivetrain and working factory A/C and youll likely never find another with a houndstooth interior!
