Correct 396 badges on the front fenders offer some warning to the unwary on the street, just in case they missed the blacked-out grille. It does, however, keep everything pretty much OEM, including the hood, and all the factory details are intact. The finish is shiny and bright, panel alignment is good, and, well, there's no indication corners were cut to keep costs down.


Straight sheetmetal looks like it belongs on a much more expensive car, and it doesn't look like this car was ever a basket case brought back from the dead. The paint is Matador Red, which is certainly high profile enough to justify the excellent bodywork that lives under it. OK, so this isn't a matching-numbers SS396, not at this price, but someone restored it as if it was. Even the bed was completely refinished and doesn't look like it's ever been pressed into service on the. Price? Holy cow! I can pretty much guarantee that if you're reading this and sitting on the fence, someone has already pulled the trigger on this impressive car. Big block power? Nice, but hardly remarkable. Fully restored bucket seat interior? Nothing odd there.

This 1968 El Camino SS396 is like a surprise party. SS 396 V8, RARE BUCKETS W/CONSOLE, RED ON RED, VERY NICE CAR INSIDE AND OUT!
