This is one slick El Camino! They say if you paint it black it better be straight; well, this one is. Rust free metal. Built in California, it lived on the west coast until 2011.

EXTERIOR: The body is clean, no rust or damage. Straight as a rifle barrel, doors click shut. It has the SS raised hood. The paint is a black mirror, the white SS stripes are painted smooth to the touch. Only a few minor nicks. It looks like all the chrome and trim has been replaced. Bumpers, mirrors, handles, marker light bezels, emblems etc. Stainless trim was replaced. All the trim around the bed opening was replaced. The 15 inch American Racing chrome wheels sparkle like new.

INTERIOR: The bench seat has been reupholstered in a comfortable cloth. Door panels and armrests were replaced. The dash pad is in real nice shape, the instrument panel is good original. It has an aftermarket tachometer, oil pressure and temperature gauge. It also has a modern stereo with 6x9 speakers. The headliner, visors and mirror look new. Dome light works. Original glovebox pouch with owner's manual is in the glovebox.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Strong running 400 small block motor. On top is an enduro shine Edelbrock intake, a big dual feed Holley carb with electric choke and an MSD ignition system. It also has a set of coated headers. New chrome alternator. Features include power steering and power brakes. It's also a factory air condition car, compressor was replaced, and it's updated with 134 freon. Looks proper and tidy; horns are hooked up, radiator and shroud are good, has a battery disconnect.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The tailgate unmatched effortlessly and clicks shut. Bottom of the tailgate is clean metal. The bed is solid, straight metal that's been sprayed with a durable bedliner. It has 2 chrome cargo hooks. You can actually haul stuff without causing harm.

UNDERSIDE: Very dry original metal. The floors, braces and rockers are very clean. The front end steering and suspension components look good. In back it has upgraded sway bar and air shocks. Dual exhaust with cherry bomb mufflers. It has disc brakes in front, the e-brake assembly is hooked up. Rear wheel cylinders were rebuilt.

I had a ‘71 SS years ago..
Mine had a SS dash and gauges,
not a Malibu dash and gauges..

[xciteful]

This appears to be a regular El Camino 'tribute' car. Unless I'm uniformed, the SS models had round dials as opposed to the standard 'sweeping' speedo.

[HypocriticYT]

These were all business in the back as you say. Sometimes monkey business with a mattress in the back, it was the 70’s!!

[briansearles]

A nice El Camino, I would not change a thing on it. Like that it has a 400 small block instead of a 350. I wonder about the dash though. As others have noted it's standard Malibu, not SS?

[NewtonWashinton]

400 small block with 350HP Do you have a Dyno sheet on this claim? Do you have Eng. build list with PN's? Is the Redline known?

[dougewing]

I had a red 69 ss with 396 and four speed

In this beauty SS stands for Super Sweet, the el Camino is probably the most underrated muscle car that was in my opinion had all the right stuff, my friend in High school had the identical car but his was a SS454, thanks Mr Grams.

[TheDRUM]

Nice Jay, but for 25 grand on the paint job you think they would have re-set the SS fender & tailgate emblems correctly. Ooops

How much for this beauty Do you ship worldwide !!

[MnBicycleCommuter]

25 grand for paint. I remember back when Earl Scheib would paint any car, any color for $99.99. (Although I saw some of those Earl Scheib paint jobs. I could do a better job with a rattle can.)

[leeroywarner]
