1979 Chevrolet El Camino SS Black on Tan Cruise Ready & Turn-Key for Summer Shows

This 1979 Chevrolet El Camino Super Sport is an obviously well-cared-for example finished in timeless Black over a Tan interior and offered as a dependable, enjoyable cruiser that is ready to hit the road immediately for summer car shows, weekend events, and local cruise nights. Garage stored since the current owners purchase in 2013, this El Camino has benefited from attentive ownership, consistent maintenance, and care from a respected local mechanic with receipts available documenting servicing and repairs as needed.

Power comes from a 305 cubic-inch small block V8 equipped with a 4-barrel carburetor, delivering the unmistakable sound and character of a classic Chevrolet V8. The odometer currently reads 82,409 miles, and the seller notes that a compression test was performed last year for added peace of mind regarding engine condition. The car starts easily, runs strong, and is presented as a turn-key driver ready to be enjoyed immediately.

2023 radiator recore at 80,546 miles
2025 battery replacement with transferable 3-year OReilly Auto Parts warranty
2023 Pioneer backup camera and tuner installation featuring a retractable hidden display screen for a clean factory-style appearance when not in use

Additional features include orange-accent wheel well lighting, a hard bed cover, and a rubber bed mat, combining practicality with subtle custom touches that help this El Camino stand out at cruise nights and local gatherings.

The overall presentation reflects long-term enthusiast ownership and careful preservation. Whether you are searching for a nostalgic cruiser, a practical classic pickup, or an affordable entry into the collector car hobby, this El Camino SS offers a strong combination of reliability, style, and vintage Chevrolet appeal.
