1969 Chevrolet El Camino

For sale at Gateway Classic Cars in our St. Louis showroom is a 1969 Chevrolet El Camino. This El Camino is a mean one! Power comes from a built 454, is mated to a Tremec 6-speed manual transmission and back to a Ford 9" rear-end housing 3.55:1 Posi-Traction gears. Chevy Big Blocks are known for their ability to breath. Flowmaster 4400 Series mufflers and tuned Hedman full length headers let this Big Block do just that. When it fires up, get ready for some attention. There's nothing like the sound of a well-built Big Block. Putting this kind of power to the ground is no easy task for an El Camino. To help with that, adjustable coil over shocks transfer weight to the rear tires to aid in traction. Oversized front and rear sway bars keep the El Camino flat when taking a corner. Up front is a pair of dropped spindles giving the El Camino an aggressive stance. This El Camino is painted in a flashy Camaro Synergy Green with Black SS stripes and staggered chrome Crager wheels with radial rubber. The front tires measure 215/65R15 and 275/60R15s out back. Power four wheel disc brakes make slowing down a breeze.

The frame off restoration included stripping the frame down to bare metal and painting it with POR 15 chassis rust prevention paint. All the bushings were replaced with neoprene for a longer life than the original rubber and for better performance.

The beautiful Synergy Green paint also makes its way into the engine bay in place of the original satin black paint plus a smoothed firewall for a nice and clean appearance. Inside the theme continues with green accents throughout the black leather. SS gauges keep you well informed and have a great vintage look to them. Equipment includes Power steering, Power brakes, Air Conditioning, Tilt steering column and an AM/FM radio with MP3.
