1977 Chevrolet El Camino V8
Specifications
Description
The El Camino's are an incredibly sought after vehicle in the collector car market.
They have, depending on the year, usually low production numbers - thus enhancing their value.
They sport the benefits of a utility vehicle, yet retain the performance of a muscle car from the same era. This example adheres to that rule and is equipped with the venerable 350 cubic inch Chevrolet V8 Engine.
El Camino’ translates from Spanish as ‘the path’ or ‘the way.’ It is an appropriate name for a car that signaled a new direction for General Motors (GM). From 1959-60 and 1964-87, the Chevrolet El Camino was a vehicle hybrid, combining the practicality of a pickup truck, passenger car comfort, stylish design, and, with the Super Sport package, high-performance muscle.
