THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owneris this unique 1986 Chevrolet El Camino pickup!
This 33 year-old Chevy is an interesting find for about the cost of the sales tax alone on a new, quickly depreciating Silverado pickup truck. As you can see by the photos, I recently began prepping it for a "brick house-themed art car". I can sell it as it sits OR finish the project for the new owner. Or perhaps it will be repainted to a more original luster. In any case, it is a solid, quite rust-free example with fresh interior upholstery, 305 V8 engine mated to the factory automatic transmission. The currently working five-digit odometer shows about 79,500 miles BUT the carfax shows a discrepancy so the actual true mileage cannot be 100% verified. It sports chrome hubcaps with good B.F. Goodrich white-lettered tires, updated cd stereo and some custom paint elements on the dash. It is being sold with original owner's manual, clean and clear California title and remote alarm key fob.
THE BODY AND TRIM
This exterior of this 1986 Chevy is in good, scuffed/sanded, partially complete brick house motif with vinyl striping overlay which can be completed by me OR easily removed for prepping for a more original glossy paint finish [new paint would be the responsibility of the new owner of course]. There is some noticeable bondo cracking on the rear tailgate along with various nicks, scratches, fading and some light corrosion on the chrome wheels
THE INTERIOR
As I hope is articulated in the photos, the interior of this 1986 El Co is in quite nice condition overall featuring refurbished carpet and cloth seat upholstery, nice door panels and headliner, updated cd stereo, custom painted dash and fabric dash cover. The lights, blinkers, horn, heat all work. The A/C is not blowing cold and the dash is all cracked and deteriorated under the cover.
THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This 1986 Chevy starts easily with decent running engine, good shifting transmission, solid straight braking and quite smooth and supple steering and suspension. NOTE: there is an exhaust manifold gasket flutter. Check out the test drive video here:https://youtu.be/wUI80vGVQg8
