1969 CHEVROLET EL CAMINO CUSTOM PICKUP

Details

This El Camino represents a 2-year ground-up build on a Fremont, CA built, rust-free classic. The body was placed on a rotisserie then media blasted revealing no rust. All surfaces were treated with sealers and primers, professionally painted in a high-tech booth using high grade PPG single-stage Torch Red paint to match the original finish applied in 1969. This El Camino features a date-correct 396/350hp engine that was built using a competition camshaft and new upgraded valves for using

unleaded fuels. A 700R4 was professionally built with shift improvers and a high torque converter, and a new 1350 series balanced driveline was installed. A date-correct 12-bolt GM posi-traction differential was built and installed with upgraded axles. The stock front and rear suspensions were rebuilt with new bushings, shocks and all of the front suspension components were specially engineered with front and rear springs for lowering and handling along with dropped spindles with correct steering geometry. 4-wheel disc brakes were installed with upgraded rotors and an emergency brake was added for safe operation. A new booster and master cylinder were designed for this application. It rides on Boss wheels with 40 series performance radials. The interior was entirely replaced with PUI upgraded materials and a one-piece velour headliner. Dynamat Extreme was applied to all interior surfaces before the carpet was laid. It features a stock 4-speed console with a Lokar cable shifter, custom Autosound radio and speakers, and a Viper security system that has GPS Tracking monitored by your phone. The stock, unmolested wire harness was used and is still pliable. This beautiful build rides so very smooth and is a true solid build that is a true pleasure to drive.
