Chevrolet El Camino 400 CID V8 4-Speed Manual $11,595 1976
General description :
For sale in out Chicago showroom is this unique 1976 Chevrolet El Camino. ’76 was a big year. The United Stated was celebrating 200 years as a nation, The Gumball Rally was in theaters, and the $2 bill was issued. This El Camino is an embodiment of everything taking place, and is built how it should have been from the factory. Powered by a 400 cubic inch small block V8 that has been warmed over, this baby sounds like a revolution. The factory automatic that all ’76 El Caminos came equipped with from the factory was removed to make space for the Borg-Warner T-10 4-speeed manual that now occupies that space. Slide onto the front bench seat and find yourself perfectly positioned to control the engine and transmission. A quick twist of the key wakes up this American icon like thunder cracking in a storm. The gears shift smoothly when cruising around town, and the vehicle is very civilized. Should the need arise to drop the hammer, however, and this baby just screams to life. GM should have offered a 4-speed from the factory, but unfortunately it just wasn’t meant to be. This vehicle brings the spirit of the revolution by changing things to how they should be, the spirit of the $2 bill by making this car twice as good as it used to be, and the Camino is so fun, you’ll want to drive it in the Gumball Rally. The “ute” design has always been very useful, and this just jacks up the fun factor. Options include: Power Brakes, Power Steering, Tilt Wheel, Seat Belts, Vinyl Interior, Radial Tires with Raised White Letters, and Rally Wheels.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
