New paint Job in January 2015 - original stock color - Dupont Cromax Light Walnut. All molding and insignias were removed but we left the insignias off when finished. New lower rubber molding was installed on the driver and passenger doors and there was one small ding with bondo on the right rear corner, other than that the body was completely straight. Top of the dashboard has a couple of cracks gunning from front to back.
The molding is all there but it is dinged a bit by the right rear wheel well. There has been a bedliner in the truck for it's entire life, so the bed is in great shape. I have unbolted the bedliner to verify that there is no body rust on the entire vehicle. The original upholstery is also in very good condition although there is a small rip where the driver sits.
This car runs great and drives like a dream.

Vehicle history:
Purchased new by my father on Nov. 15 1985 from Ely-Anderson Chevrolet (300 El Camino Real, Menlo Park CA)
I have all of the original paperwork, including the dealer's warranty, owner's manual and the original El Camino Brochure. My father kept the vehicle garaged and saved all of his service records and repair receipts for nearly 20 years. The owner's manual looks as though someone spilled transmission fluid on it.
Mechanically the car runs beautifully and it has always started right up.
When the spark plugs were replaced, we ran a compression test. All of the cylinders registered between 167 and 173.
In 1997 the vehicle was hit while parked on the street, damaging the hood and left front quarterpanel along with the right front axle which was broken as the vehicle was pushed up onto the curb. All of the damaged parts were replaced and we have kept all of the paperwork associated with those repairs and the insurance claim.
In August of 2005, with approximately 108,000 miles, the car was given to my brother, who drove it down to Santa Barbara and parked it at my house for approx. 18 months before selling it to me. Since 2005 it has been driven very sparingly (approx 112,000 miles presently) and the following parts have been replaced:
water pump, thermostat, Radiator and hoses
Master Cylinder, brake fluid for the entire system
Spark Plugs, fuel pump, and fuel pump relay
Rear Brake shoes and Front Brake pads
Oxygen sensor
