FAST FACTS

Overview

What people are saying about:
1972 Chevy El Camino SS
"The El Camino took the undeniably beautiful looks of the Chevelle and mixed it with the practicality of a truck. Chevy continued to give the El Camino more and more power and it got better and better looking."
James PumphreyHost of Donut Media’s Up To Speed
"The Chevrolet El Camino could be considered ahead of its time, an absolute epitome of its time, or maybe even timeless. …It seems as if it could only have been conceived and created in the United States. If Uncle Sam ever drove a car, it would have to be an El Camino, because it demonstrates a particular and peculiar ingenuity, then powers it with a V-8 engine."
MotortrendMagazine
"The third generation is when these cars fully leaned into the muscle car category. Sure they still had the truck bed, but it's what was under the hood that grabbed the attention of people."
