1971 MY Chevrolet El Camino
Modern-day vehicles sure find a way to blend in performance and practicality but back in the day, you would have to forego one to gain the other. The Chevrolet El-Camino was the genesis of practicality and performance neatly packed into one car. With good examples few and far in between this 1971 Chevrolet El Camino is truly a hot catch. Couple this with the 31,000 miles reported on the clock and you have old-school design ingenuity in all its glory.
The El Camino’s design is one that's always bound to spark a discussion no matter where you are or how old it gets. Up front, you had those iconic muscle car looks and at the back the practicality of a truck. This 1971 Chevrolet El Camino shares its design with the iconic 3rd generation Chevrolet Chevelle and sports a lovely red exterior. The body and paint are in great shape and that's due to the owner reporting the car has seen a fresh paint job. In terms of wheels, this car sports simple hubcap wheels which are reported to be new and wrapped with fresh tires. The car reportedly has seen a recent alignment to ensure reduced tire wear. The tan interior of this 1971 Chevrolet El Camino sports a whole lot of original features and is a lovely place to be in. The bench seats are still present in the car and are in great shape thanks to the car interior reportedly being upholstered. While the majority of components present on the interior are factory, there are a few upgrades which include aftermarket gauges to better monitor performance and a reportedly new Kenwood radio player with Bluetooth capability for your tunes. A hot summer's day won't halt your drive out as this car also reportedly now has an upgraded air conditioning unit to cool down the cabin.
The third generation El Camino sported a lot of new features but perhaps the most interesting is that this would be the first time the El Camino would see 350 cubic inches of powerplant underneath the hood. Powering this 1971 Chevrolet El Camino is a 5.7L (350ci) V8 powertrain that provides decent performance and renowned reliability. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through a 3 speed automatic gearbox and your driving experience is made more enjoyable with power steering and power brakes.
Chevy introduced the El Camino in 1964 to compete with the Ford Ranchero. It has always captivated our attention as one of the most distinctive American cars of all time. The fifth generation of the El Camino, which our subject car is from, marked the end of this folk hero of a car. The death of the El Camino was a somber one, though there have been rumors Chevy's going to bring it back. For now, we have well-preserved examples like this 1986 Chevrolet El Camino to enjoy the peculiarity of this model. It has 145,000 miles on it and reportedly has all its maintenance up to date.
The Chevrolet El Camino holds a special place in the pantheon of American classic cars. It combined good looks with genuine versatility and proved a popular option for everyone, from trades workers to families. The combination of a car-like front end with the practicality of a load tray earned it many fans and is a body style that is fairly uncommon in today's automotive landscape. The third-generation El Camino shared its styling with the Chevelle and was updated to mimic the passenger car’s looks for the 1971 model year. Our featured example is a 1971 Ford El Camino powered by a rebuilt 350ci V8 engine, which has undergone a host of new parts and maintenance.
Chevy's renowned El Camino nameplate redefined what a pickup truck could be when it was married with a stylish and sporty coupe body style. Designed to offer the comfort of a car, coupled with the versatility of a compact pickup truck, the El Camino created the segment called the Coupe Utility. Of course, the El Camino wasn't the first coupe utility, but it's arguably the most well-known, especially as it was produced up to 1987. Hence, this 1987 Chevrolet El Camino represents one of the last examples to leave the GM production lines and grace our roads. If you buy it, you'll be gaining a relatively modern vehicle, a definite future classic, and a piece of Americana. What's not to like about that trifecta?
Would you like a first-gen Camaro with a bit of spice under the hood? Granted, GM did endow the Camaro with plenty of spiciness when it debuted, thanks to some potent V8 engines and handling packages. But, this 1969 Chevrolet Camaro is different. You see, it’s a sort of restomod that’s been built to go faster than a stock first-gen Camaro ever did from the factory. So, would you like to own something that’s quite unique, and probably one of a kind in terms of specifications and enhancements? Contact us pronto.
The Chevrolet Tahoe is the Bowtie brand’s full-size SUV offering. Since 1992, the Tahoe has represented a go-anywhere sport utility vehicle that could carry the average American family across the country in comfort, dog and all. With excellent off-road credentials, the Tahoe could take the path less travelled, too. Now we’re on the fifth generation, but there are some fantastic older ones available too. Take this first-generation 1997 Chevrolet Tahoe LT as a prime example. Extensively modified, this off-road ready beast has a significant 265,000 miles on the clock but don’t let that put you off. It’s been well looked after, and in your care, can easily double or even triple that mileage without major woes.
Chevy’s C5 Corvette is always a special one. The last of the pop-up headlamp brigade, the C5 was an all-new design that took over from the C4 in 1997. Produced until 2004, over 248,000 examples found homes during its production run. This 2002 Chevrolet Corvette is one of them, and comes with a light 32,000 miles under its belt. It’s got some cosmetic and performance enhancements as well, making it even more of a hoot to drive. Plus, it’s sure to be a future classic, so if you buy it, you’re a winner today and tomorrow as well.
