The best of the El Camino's, 1959. The days of the 348 tri power are gone. Now it's all about 6 liter LS motors so here you go. 2007 truck motor with just over 38,000 miles. New high pressure oil pump, cam sensor, MAP sensor, temp sensor. Rebuilt 4L60 4-speed automatic trans. C-4 Corvette front and rear suspension with extra leaf added to carry the weight of this vehicle. 4-wheel power disc brakes with rack and pinion quick steering. Turnkey Products wiring harness. All wiring replaced with Painless product. Tach and speedo work with adapters to utilize stock speedo and Mooneyes tach. 4 wheel alignment completed. Rotors turned. New brake and gas lines. New gas tank and sender. New high pressure fuel pump with filter and regulator. New aluminum 3-row radiator. New heater core. New alternator. New shocks. Upholstery and Paint less than 2500 miles ago. Bumpers re-chromed 3000 miles ago. New carpet this year. New shifter. New 21/2" exhaust. New dual diaphragm booster with master cylinder. New drive shaft. 17" IROC Camaro wheels. Rear tires with only a couple hundred miles and fronts with a few thousand. This car has not seen water on it's body for 13 years I know of and is garage kept. Previous owner told me same thing about the 12 years in his possession. The paint is base coat clear coat and has normal wear and tear as it is driver. You want a show car take this one and spend the $ necessary. The vinyl upholstery has no visible wear and tear and the carpet is days old. All glass is original. I have front windshield rubber as I was going to replace glass which has small rock chip and wiper streak. I never got to it so you may have the rubber. Rust was cut out of rear fenders and metal replaced when painted. I think from what I can see from underneath the car that foot wells in front were replaced sometime. Stainless around bed is dented as you would expect from a car this age. Bed is Rhino lined. This car is drives like it is on a rail. Pedal response is immediate and steering is rack and pinion quick. This motor was designed to pull a 9000 truck and is in a car weighing around 3500 lbs, 360HP and 380 FT LBS torque makes this 6 liter motor power the El Camino like never before. If you are a car nut and have been watching the latest trend in rodding you have noticed more and more LS modifications coming out. Add the stability of Corvette suspension and now you have my car. Now that I know the ropes I am thinking of another project. I have been doing cars all my life and if you want to see some my other projects I can send some pics upon request. Per usual I can not warranty a car which has only been in my possession for 13 years so the sale is AS IS. Buyer is responsible for shipping. A deposit of non refundable $2000 transferred to my bank is due upon completion of auction. Balance is to be a bank to bank transfer or cash in hand. I invite you or your representative to come inspect this car prior to bidding as the sale is final. More pictures available upon request. Some trades may be entertained of equal value, GTO, Camaro, ?
