1973 Chevrolet El Camino 350

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Redesigned for 1973 on General Motors’ Colonnade A-body platform, the fourth-generation El Camino was the largest yet and gained hardtop-style doors with framed upper glass. Front disc brakes were standard, engines ranged from a 250ci inline-six to a 454ci V8, and new options included swivel bucket seats, a center console, and Turbine I wheels.

This El Camino is finished in blue over a black interior and is powered by a 350ci V8 paired with an automatic transmission with a console-mounted floor shifter. Equipment includes bucket seats, a center console, Rally wheels, and dual exhaust outlets. According to the seller, the exterior was repainted in its current metallic blue over epoxy primer, and the seat covers, carpet, and dash pad were replaced.

This 1973 Chevrolet El Camino is now offered at no reserve with a clean Texas title in the seller’s name.
