  • I found this car while browsing through a junkyard on break. It had been sitting in there for 18 years but I was able to talk the owner into selling it. Later I found out it was originally a four-speed car that had been converted to an automatic. Stay tuned for the build on here and my Instagram: @dezzysspeedshop

    First time on your channel. Man that station wagon is serious! love it! Even if that Elco isn't an original SS or big block car it's worth saving. Pretty solid looking. And I love that it's a factory 4-speed car. Need to rip out that steering column and fix the crime that was committed when they swapped in an automatic.

    When I was a kid my dad drove a 1971 SS 454 Elco it was a 4 speed car, red w black stripes. Him and my uncle were both into drag racing and they supported that habit by converting VW Bugs into Dunebuggies with a fiberglass body and crazy metal flake paint jobs. As a kid in the 70's I didn't realize how cool that was but looking back now at how rare those Dunebuggies are I realize that he and my uncle were pretty genius. Back then my mom drove a 1965 SS 327 Impala, it was Lavender with white interior 👍it was a beautiful car.

      Man I love the 72's but for some reason I've always been drawn to the
      1973 Malibu and its because it's the only year they made the round tail lights above the rear bumper. I just love that look and like you I owned and built 2 of them in the late 80's & early 90's until I became a dad n got married and had to sell a lot of stuff. I'm driving a 2015 ScatPack Challenger now and it brings those feelings back just fine 👍

    @natew8882 3 года назад

    I hate to be the one to tell you but that El Camino is not an original Super Sport. I see two things right off the bat that would not be found on a true Super Sport. I believe that somebody has tried to make it look like a super sport. The emblem above the glove box is 1968 only. The driver side door panel is not a 1969 door panel. I believe the SS 396 emblems on the door panels are not original. In other words somebody added them. The steering column is out of a Pontiac. But the real giveaway is the Malibu Fender molding holes in the front fenders and I think if you look for holes behind the panels where the Malibu trim would be you'll find those holes in the ends of the door, in the fender and in the rear quarter panels. Also the steering shaft is a small block shaft not a big block.

    • @DezzysSpeedShop

      You obviously didn’t look at the driver’s fender or take note that the whole steering column has been changed or even that Monaco Orange was only available on SS396 Chevelles and El Caminos. But what do I know, I just own it 🤷🏾‍♂️

    Ah, the video title implies it has a "4 speed" manual transmission but there's no clutch pedal or gear shift?
    I also thought it had an engine (396)?
    I'm guessing the project will be to install a rebuilt (by you) 396, convert it to a 4 speed transmission (clutch pedal, gear shift, etc...) and whatever needs to be done to get it looking and running right. ;-)

    • @DezzysSpeedShop

      Originally it was a 396/4 speed. They were robbed years ago. Some of the linkage is still hanging and it will be put back to that drivetrain. Still not sure what the column was swapped out of.
