This 1972 Chevrolet El Camino was acquired by the current owner in 2013 and underwent refurbishment work that was completed in 2023. A 350ci V8 was installed, the truck was refinished in gray, and the interior was fitted with folding bucket seats. Shifting is through a three-speed automatic transmission, and other equipment includes an Edelbrock carburetor, front disc brakes, 18″ US Mags wheels, power steering, and LED headlights. The cab is outfitted with air conditioning, a horseshoe-style shifter, and black upholstery. This El Camino is now offered by the seller on behalf of the owner with an Oregon title in the owner’s name.
The pickup was finished in gray as part of the refurbishment work completed in 2023, per the seller, and exterior details include a drop-down tailgate, body-color bumpers, LED headlights, black trim, and a spray-in bedliner.
US Mags 18″ multi-spoke wheels are mounted with 245/45 front and 255/45 rear Continental ExtremeContact tires. Braking is handled by cross-drilled and slotted front discs and rear drums, and the vehicle is equipped with power steering.
Retrofitted folding seats are upholstered in black with contrast stitching and perforated microsuede inserts. The center console carries a horseshoe-style shifter. The radio is missing.
The woodgrain-rimmed steering wheel is mounted on a tilting column and fronts a 120-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. A trio of aftermarket readouts is mounted below the dashboard. The five-digit odometer shows 3 miles, and total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 350ci V8 was installed in 2023, according to the seller, and is equipped with an Edelbrock carburetor, headers, and valve covers with 383 stroker text.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a three-speed Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission and a 12-bolt rear end.
