Under the hood lies the 350ci small-block V8, being fed through a Holley Fi-Tech EFI system for strong and reliable performance. An MSD ignition system ensures modern spark delivery, while the power is channeled through a 4-speed manual transmission to a 10-bolt GM differential with 4.11 gears. This setup not only delivers spirited acceleration but also provides the durability enthusiasts expect from GM’s proven drivetrain components. The combination of upgrades and careful restoration makes this El Camino a confident driver with muscle car flair.

1983 Chevrolet El Camino

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$20,000
SOLD

Chevy’s El Camino is the result of what happens when a sports coupe and a pickup truck have a one-night stand. What you see here in this Emerald Green 1983 Chevrolet El Camino Restomod is the results of five generations of this quirky pairing, that began in 1959, when Chevy’s engineers decided to combine the unibody construction and two-door passenger cabin of a sports coupe with the utility of a pickup truck – hence the name of the segment, Coupe Utility. Today’s Coupe Utility comes from Ardmore, Oklahoma and is quite extensively resto-modded. It’s got a potent 383 Stroker under the hood paired with an automatic gearbox, a refreshed interior, some catchy wheels plus more.

2017 Chevrolet Camaro 2SS Convertible Indy 500 Festival Edition

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$49,999

Some special editions are simply appearance packages, while others carry genuine provenance that collectors immediately recognize. This 2017 Chevrolet Camaro 2SS Convertible Indy 500 Festival Edition belongs firmly in the latter category. Showing just 8,394 miles, this highly exclusive machine is one of only 101 officially designated Indy 500 Festival parade cars produced for the 2017 Indianapolis 500 festivities, with this specific example individually numbered #85. That makes it exponentially rarer than ordinary Camaro special editions and far more significant than a standard production 2SS Convertible. Finished in Summit White over a striking Adrenaline Red leather cabin with a black soft top, this Camaro combines authentic event heritage with naturally aspirated V8 performance. For collectors seeking something with true motorsport association, documented rarity, and immediate visual presence, this is the kind of modern American special edition that stands apart.
