1983 Chevrolet El Camino

Now available in our Gateway Classic Cars of Houston showroom is this AWARD WINNING 1983 Chevrolet El Camino. Between the healthy powerplant and the very comfortable interior, this car surely deserved to win all of the awards it has.

Under the hood of this beauty is a five-liter V8 engine that runs very strong thanks to a rebuild roughly 1000 miles ago. Supplying fuel to the engine is a four-barrel Edelbrock carburetor topped by a chrome air cleaner with a "5.0 Liter H.O." decal. Supplying the engine with that air/fuel ratio is an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold. Edelbrock valve covers accent the carburetor and add an aggressive look to the engine bay. Routing the exhaust gasses to the rear of the vehicle is a Flowmaster exhaust system. Spark runs through braided steel plug wires to the plugs. The coolant lines are also braided steel with blue anodized fasteners. Keeping the engine cool are dual electric Flex-A-Lite fans. Sending the power to the rear end is a built Turbo-350 transmission that shifts crisply through the gears. When it comes time to slow this truck down, the driver will appreciate the front disc brakes that provide good bite and stopping power. Overall this car runs very well and sounds just as good.

Moving outward, this car features an eye-catching yellow paint job that is in good condition other than some very minor imperfections. All of the appropriate badging is in place and in good condition. Each of the doors feature red and black decals that state "Super Sport". These decals tie in well with the smaller one on the tailgate and the stripes running the length of the vehicle. The bed of the truck is finished in a durable yellow spray-in bed liner that adds to the utility and the look of the vehicle. Supporting each corner of this cool ride are rally wheels that are wrapped in BF Goodrich radial tires with good tread life left in them.

Upon entering this El Camino, the driver will immediately notice how comfortable the leather bucket seats are. And with the two tone pattern, they look just as good as they feel. The center consol and dash also feature the same brown color as the seats. Keeping the driving experience comfortable are power steering and brakes. The temperature in the cabin will be well regulated year-round thanks to functional AC/heat. If the driver ever gets tired of hearing the healthy V8, there is also a radio tucked in the dash. Overall this an excelent driver quality vehicle that has an inpressive collection of awards.
