Cruisin Classics would like to introduce a new guest in our showroom. We have acquired a 1978 Chevrolet El Camino. It just happens to be an automobile that was brought up from the grave by Counts Customs in Season 1, Episode 5. It was won by a local couple here in Columbus, Ohio in the History Channel Sweepstakes back in 2012. They have enjoyed it immensely for these past few years and have decided to move on to another classic.We... have pictures of the events surrounding the winners in Las Vegas at the shop accepting this very well-done El Camino. Any and all documentation will follow the car. Just to get you out of the gate, it has Air Conditioning, Power steering, Power front disc brakes, easy automatic shifting and an all around comfortable drive both physical and mental.Underneath the hood, you will find a very clean compartment. It has been meticulously taken care of over the years and it is apparent. There are new wipers and a wiper motor compliments of our own Cruisin Classics Performance Center.THE DRIVETRAIN and Components...Crate ZZ4 350ci, 350 HP, 400 ft-lbs torqueAluminum HeadsHolley CarburetorSerpentine Belt SystemHedman HeddersSummit 700R4 Forward shift pattern AutomaticB&M MegashifterEaton Positraction10 Bolt Rear EndDocuments and details of these components in a folder ready for the next owner.THE EXTERIOR...The Elkie has a fabulous Red exterior that will turn heads for miles. Please refer to the pictures on the quality and the straightness of the body. If you are going to give it beautiful paint, you better have a good shell to put it on and they nailed it. The Black stripes are done tastefully with the TV Shows signature webbing ghosted into the paint. All of the bright-work is bright and shiny, has very little exterior badging to get in the way of showing off the paint, a Black plastic lined bed and Cragar wheels all come together to make it a majestic classic.THE INTERIOR...It is a Black bench seat interior with Black carpet and a Black headliner. The Pro Comp gauges light up as soon as you turn on the ignition. Nice touch! The steering wheel is from Grant and it has a tilt wheel for even more comfortable drive. The B&M shifter on the floor is an easy throw from the driver to operate. In summary, you will be very relaxed as soon as you shut the door entering your spacious ride. Turn the key and have fun.The bed is lined for whatever you want to throw at it. Please browse all of the photos so you can see the craftsmanship that was put into this car/truck. If you are looking for a classic that has a documented history...how about one with pictures and it's own TV show episode.
