An overall nice street machine, maybe some elbow grease and a week's labor and a few trim parts to be on par with a Super Chevy trophy car. The current owner isn't a muscle car guy and he took the car in on a trade 3 years ago. I'm ready to buy this car tommorrow, but I'm thinkin in 'I gotta have it' mode.

Runs like a raped ape
Talked with original owner that says it's an original 396 4 speed El Camino - He still has the original 4 speed Muncie and MIGHT know where the block is.
What do you think it's worth now?
What would it be worth restored to a #'s matching car?
Whats weird is Elkes have never drawn the cash that coupes have, Im not sure why
its quite modified, just figure out if its worth it to you, and if so, rock on !
We're finishing up a '69 el Camino. It's was a pretty basic vehicle. I already had the wheels, tires, bucket seats, and in for over $20K CDN. I could have had the choice of several SS cars for about the same money. el Caminos seem to be the bargain Chevies out there. There are several for sale on this web site that will give you something to compare with.
