Description : Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to present this 1979 Chevrolet El Camino!
This ride is wearing a very catchy shade of blue with a black carpeting, gray bucket seats, and quite the relic of what looks to be a pretty banging sound system. Unfortunately, the subwoofers are not hooked up and loose power cables and RCA cables are present. It appears to have been there at one point but currently only produces basic sound from a speaker in the rear of the car. The aftermarket radio functions as it should including USB connectivity, Bluetooth, and HD radio.
The engine is said to be a 383 V8 and feels like it makes a healthy amount of power. The 4 speed manual shifts smoothly into all gears and really gives the car a fun feel. The bolstered bucket seats also add to the experience to help keep you planted while maneuvering the roads. The rear differential housing is most definitely not stock, and the seller states it is a posi-traction unit.
The engine bay does show some use but has a lot of goodies including a Quick Fuel carburetor, power brakes, and power steering. Some minor rust bubbling was noted on the passenger side, and the paint condition overall would rate at fair to okay.
This 1979 Chevrolet El Camino is offered by the St. Louis sales staff and can be seen in full detail on our website. Our listing all include 100+ HD photos and a detailed video!

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.
