The terrific color combo, A/C interior, and big block power headline this 1970 Chevrolet El Camino. But as you dig deeper, you'll start to the full advantage of a meticulously restored classic with less than 2,500 miles on the build. So if you love a head-turning classic, keep reading... The El Camino had a few shades of blue in 1970, but nothing this rich. It gives you some of the same look of the factory's Astro Blue, but... with a deeper tone and plenty of modern metallic flair. And even before the first drop of blue went down, they made sure the panels were looking great. The result is the kind of work that looks terrific as the sunlight dances evenly across the sheetmetal. Complementing this paint's shine is a nice brightwork trim, bezels, and form-fitting chrome bumpers that are shining like mirrors. But this very bright package also has a well-coordinated dark side. The dual black painted stripes goes with the blacked-out grille, rear panel, and full tonneau cover for a great looking addition. And this darkness is also a nice complement to the aggressive SS features like the Mag-style wheels and working cowl induction hood. All the darkness on the outside is also a nice preview of the interior. The premium insignias trim presentation looks crisp on the seats and door panels. The dash look nice, the steering wheel is complete, and the carpeting is plush. So you can really tell they made the right investments in the fundamentals here. And everything has a vintage look and feel, right down to the AM radio that's still cranking out tunes. More than just a cool classic look, this El Camino has all the right features you want â€" everything from cold-blowing air conditioning, to power steering, to a full gauge package with large speedo and tach. Under the hood are more signs of a proper investment in getting a classic muscle car look. It's a crisp and dark presentation that funnels your attention to the bold orange block and intake in the middle. And we all know people at car shows will be pointing to the diaphragm on the air topper that seals this one to the fresh air cowl induction hood â€" after all, it's a proper Chevy piece we rarely see these days. More than just look great, this provides you with terrific big block power. The 402 cubic-inch motor inhales deeply with a Rochester four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with authority out of the Flowmaster dual exhaust. And this big V8 is properly supported by everything from an HEI ignition to a recently rebuilt TH350 three-speed automatic transmission. And as you look at the undercarriage photos, this really shows you the level of detail and freshness in the restoration. Plus, you'll spot great driving features like front disc brakes. The sale comes complete with the owner's manual, dyno sheet, and over $7k in receipts invested over the last few years. It all proves that this is a top quality classic that loves to be driven. So if you want a vintage machine that's ready for both show and go, call today!
