This 1960 Chevrolet El Camino showcases a bold Roman Red finish that emphasizes its unique silhouette. The wraparound rear glass, sporty roof overhang, and tailgate with integrated tailfin create a distinctive profile. Gray trim accents provide contrast against the vibrant paintwork. 15"" Summit Racing wheels fill the wheel wells, with 205/70R15 General tires up front and 225/60R15 Cooper tires in the rear. Chrome trim accentuates the El Camino's lines, while the bed maintains a clean, barely-used appearance. This model represents just 1% of Chevrolet's total production on this platform for 1960, making it a scarce find for collectors.
Black vinyl covers the bench seat, creating a stark contrast with the exterior color scheme. The dashboard, painted to match the body, houses AutoMeter gauges for accurate readings. A Retro Sounds AM/FM/Aux radio blends vintage aesthetics with modern functionality. The Hurst shifter, complete with its iconic T-handle, takes center stage on the floor. Aftermarket air conditioning integrated into the stock controls provides modern comfort. An armrest with built-in storage and cup holders adds convenience. New carpets and headliner complete the freshly restored interior, creating a cohesive and inviting space for driver and passenger alike.
A 350 V8 crate engine powers this El Camino, a significant upgrade from the original inline-six. An Edelbrock carburetor sits atop an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, paired with shorty headers for improved breathing. A 4-speed Muncie manual transmission, controlled by the Hurst shifter, puts the power to the pavement. An aluminum radiator with electric fans keeps the temperature in check during spirited driving. Front disc brakes provide strong stopping power, while power steering ensures easy maneuverability. The dual exhaust system with aftermarket mufflers produces a deep, authoritative tone that matches the El Camino's muscular appearance.
