1970 Chevrolet El Camino 396
No Reserve. Finished in its factory-correct Green Mist with a contrasting black vinyl top, this 1970 Chevrolet El Camino Custom combines one of Chevrolet's most memorable muscle-car designs with the versatility of a pickup. The VIN and Fisher Body cowl tag confirm a Kansas City-built V8 El Camino finished in Code 45 Green Mist, and the drivetrain stampings provide strong evidence that it retains its original numbers-matching 396-cubic-inch big-block V8 and automatic transmission. The engine's partial VIN matches the vehicle's serial number, its Tonawanda assembly date correctly precedes the late-December 1969 body build, and the transmission carries the corresponding matching partial VIN. Presented with an open-element air cleaner, Chevrolet-orange engine finish, black vinyl roof, and period-style wheels, this El Camino delivers the unmistakable presence and character of Chevrolet's big-block performance era. Sharing its styling and engineering with the legendary 1970 Chevelle, the El Camino offered genuine muscle-car performance while retaining a usable cargo bed and distinctive car-based proportions. Numbers-matching big-block examples are especially desirable, and this car's documented original engine and transmission substantially enhance its authenticity and collector appeal. With its correct factory color combination, matching drivetrain, desirable 396 power, and iconic one-year front-end styling, this 1970 El Camino Custom represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a highly collectible Chevrolet that is equally suited for show display, weekend cruising, or inclusion in a serious muscle-car collection. MILEAGE: 23047. VIN: 136800K146214.
