Evolution of Chevrolet El Camino: From sedan pickup to Muscle Car
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 июн 2023
- This is the evolution of the Chevrolet El Camino! The Chevrolet El Camino was a car/truck hybrid vehicle produced by Chevrolet between 1959 and 1987. Inspired by the Ford Ranchero, which had been released two years earlier, the El Camino combined the Chevrolet sedan platform with an integrated cargo bed body. It was, as the ads said, "the most beautiful thing that ever carried a load!"
In this video, we will follow the history and evolution of all El Camino models, from the first generation based on the Biscayne 2, to the latest generation based on the GM G-body 2. We will see how the El Camino went from a practical and elegant vehicle, to a powerful and sporty one, equipped with the SS engine that turned it into one of the iconic muscle cars of the 60s and 70s. We will also discover how the El Camino was influenced by Australian ute culture (coupé utility) and how it inspired other similar models such as the GMC Sprint or the Chevrolet SSR.

I had a 67 El Camino 300 hp and it was the best car I’ve ever owned. Can’t wait to see the new ones.
they're ugly as crap .they are nothing more than a small avalanche .yeah 4 door chevy colorado
Defiantly the 66-72 Elcaminos will always be my favorite.
The first car I drove was a 1970 El Camino SS 396. It hauled more than cargo :) Thanks for the memories!
Very cool! Thanks for watching!
The Mullet of Muscle Cars.🤘🏻
El camino what a ride
The Elcamino and the Ranchero are defiantly outstanding American Utes.
You forgot the '86 Monte Carlo El Camino!
I had a '69, loaded. Awesome truck.
The the 59-70 el Camino will always be my favorite
The Australian Holden Ute sold in South Africa as a version of the El Camino was better looking in my opinion...but I'm biased! Lol. Fantastic video!
Thanks for the appreciation! Interesting your observation about the Holden Ute; it is true that it has a unique design that gives it a special charm. It's fascinating to see how similar El Camino models have been adapted and reinterpreted in different markets, such as the Holden Ute in Australia and its version in South Africa.
The El Camino is my dream car.
The El Camino is indeed a remarkable vehicle, blending the utility of a pickup truck with the style and comfort of a car. Its unique design and versatility have made it a favorite among car enthusiasts. What year or model of the El Camino is your dream?
Mr. B. Here ! 🍩☕️👀😎. I have 1976 GMC Sprint just like El Camino . Love my Sprint why one may ask am 71 I this maybe a shock I do not need a SUV or a Full size truck, my Sprint frame was station so with no real CARS ( Automobile ) my cost to maintain is lower than many of the newer vehicles out there ! Americans have forgotten we control the dollars many have aloud ( B S ) to take many over, I have talk to many and found defensive like a cancer ! Nobody is not ready to get the right people to help lead ! Good luck to all of us . 👀😎👍
Hey Mr. B! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It's great to hear that your 1976 GMC Sprint is still going strong and serving you well. Cheers! 👍😎
They should bring back the el Camino
Totally agree! El Camino has a fascinating history and distinctive design. There are many fans who would be delighted to see his return. It would be interesting to see what a modern version of this classic model would look like.
No please don’t they will butcher the shit out of it.
Agreed 100%

It's called an Avalanche.
It drove like a car, but it looked like a truck.
I love El Camino and Ranchero I don't care what year I own a 79 El Camino my first and always loved car now I need a Ranchero to add to my dream car collection
Nice! We also have the Ford Ranchero evolution available on the channel. Thanks for the comment!
My late dad used to have a 1959 El Camino
Thank you so much for sharing this personal memory with us. A 1959 Chevrolet El Camino is truly a piece of history and an iconic vehicle that marked its era. It must have been a special experience to have such a car in the family, a tangible link to the past and memories of your father. Every El Camino has a unique story, and we're glad we were able to evoke such precious memories through our video.
Proud owner of a 1970 El Camino 350
Congratulations on owning a true classic! The 1970 Chevrolet El Camino is an iconic example of automotive design and performance from that era. The 350 engine is renowned for its robustness and power. I would love to hear more about your experience with this vehicle. Did you make changes or keep everything in its original state? Either way, you have a gem on four wheels there!
@@autoevolutiontv I have videos of it posted on my channel
Wish I still had my ‘76 El Camino☹️
If Chrysler takes current Pacifica making some cuts, tweaks, designing and underlay strengthening... voilà!...The new reincarnation of UTE is born!
FORD RANCHERO - 1957
el camino - 1959
You're Welcome !
The El Camino/Ranchero/Caballero are the best vehicles for a young, hard-working man.
If they're going to re-release this cat, the engine sizes better start at V8 and higher. Heck, i heard the Mexicans were installing them with diesel engines.
Maybe do a soft release as a "hearse" type vehicle.
Do you have any more information on caballeros ? 1984
What or how many years was the “Cowl induction” hood offered? The hood with the flapper door.
The 'Cowl Induction' hood with the flapper door was offered on the Chevrolet El Camino from 1969 to 1972. It was a popular feature among enthusiasts because it not only added a unique look to the vehicle but also improved engine performance by providing a source of cooler air for the engine. It's a distinctive and iconic feature of those years for the El Camino!
the 69 elcamino did not come with a cowl hood .being it is a different frontend . The SS had a hood that 2 raised sections but there was not any flap like the 70
I have a 1984 GMC Caballero would love to hear more about them I know last year in USA then on to Mexico I also know that there was only 2750 made An Amarillo with V8 305 and I know that to tone brown was the rarest color I would like to know how to see what number it was in production ? Thank you
You can find out the production number of your 1984 GMC Caballero by checking the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The VIN is a unique code specific to your vehicle, and it often contains a serial number indicating its production sequence.
To locate the VIN, you can check the dashboard on the driver's side, visible through the windshield, or on the driver’s side door on a sticker where the door latches when closed.
Once you have the VIN, you can decode it to learn more about your vehicle, including its place in the production line. There are various websites and tools online that can help you decode the VIN for free. Just make sure to use a reliable and secure site.
If you're looking for more detailed or specific information about the rarity and production details of your model, connecting with a GMC or classic car enthusiast group or forum might also be helpful. Members often have access to detailed production data and can offer insights into the specifics of your model, including its rarity and historical significance.
