But with 63,000 miles (101,389 km) on the odo, it could be one of those original cars that only got a few touch-ups and maybe a repaint.

It's also a rare gem, with only around 500 units produced.īut the SS 454 LS6 wasn't the only beefed-up El Camino available through the years. Rated at a whopping 450 horsepower and 500 pound-feet (678 Nm) of torque, it turned the pickup into a 13-second car down the quarter-mile. The 454-cubic-inch (7.4-liter) LS6 V8 of 1970 is obviously the most iconic and desirable. Much like the Chevelle of the era, the El Camino was part of the muscle car wars and rolled off the assembly line with a few notable performance options. The El Camino soldiered on until 1987 as a version of the Chevelle or Malibu, but it's the 1964-to-1972 models that are sought-after these days. ![]()
