1972 Chevrolet El Camino Pickup Truck Automatic 350ci V8 6174 Miles
Chevrolet developed the El Camino to rival the Ford Rancheros success of combining a coupe utility truck with muscle car looks. Production of the El Camino began in 1959, 2 years after the Ranchero but quickly gained popularity and consistently outsold the Ford Ranchero especially in later generations. El Caminos were adapted from Chevrolet 2-door station wagon platforms fitted with cargo beds, a unique look and a must-have for those striving for practicality with style. The 1959 and 1960 El Caminos were based on the Chevrolet Biscayne's B-Body, with production with production ended in 1960 and not to return to the market for 4 years. The second-generation Chevrolet El Camino marked it return in 1964, now being based on the iconic Chevelle body using its muscle car appeal creating 4 years of solid production and order numbers in the 30,000 units annually. By 1968, Chevrolet introduced a longer version based on the Chevelle station wagon/sedan chassis. This third-generation El Camino spans from 1968-1972, with a fresh face lift featuring a pointed front end with a twin bar grill, new bumpers, single-unit side marker lights and single beam headlights.
