1968 Chevrolet El Camino SS396 - #'s Matching Factory A/C Grotto Blue Restored!
Chevrolet sold five generations of the El Camino between 1959 and 1987, and they all shared the same basic characteristics: they were based on a road car platform with a front engine, rear wheel drive layout, they had two doors and a pickup bed in the back with a fold down tailgate.
The standard El Camino SS came with a three-speed manual transmission however buyers could opt for either a four-speed or an automatic. The significant power output of the engine did catch more than a few El Camino SS drivers by surprise, the front-weight bias of the cars (with an empty rear tray of course) combined with the rear-wheel drive made it startlingly easy to spin the rear tires much to the delight of any fan of burnouts.
Chevrolet built the third generation El Camino on the Chevelle station wagon/four-door sedan platform, and it also shared some Chevelle Malibu exterior and interior trim. Strato bucket seats, a center console, power front disc brakes, and the Positraction rear end were optional extras. 1968 was the only year Chevrolet produced a VIN specific Super Sport El Camino.
