Chevrolet El Camino
Chevrolet's El Camino is a unique car-truck hybrid that blended passenger car comfort with the utility of a light pickup. It's this distinctive style and versatility, often built on the popular Chevelle platform, that makes it a long-standing favorite for collectors.
Chevrolet El Camino sold for a median of $25,000 over the last 12 months, based on 217 auction sales; the middle 50% sold between $14,300 and $39,600. 3,678 currently for sale.
Chevrolet's El Camino first appeared in 1959, lasting just two years before returning in 1964 on the Chevelle platform. This unique car-truck hybrid offered the utility of a light-duty pickup with the comfort and performance of a passenger car. It remained in production through five distinct generations, evolving with Chevrolet's intermediate car line until its final model year in 1987.
Collectors are drawn to the El Camino's distinctive style and versatility. The most desirable models hail from the muscle car era, particularly the Super Sport (SS) variants equipped with big-block V8s like the 396 and 454. These versions combined aggressive looks with serious performance, making them icons of the period. Later generations from the late 1970s and 1980s offer an affordable entry into the classic car market.
The market for El Caminos is broad, with an average sale price around $21,000 reflecting its accessibility. While many affordable driver-quality examples exist, rare, numbers-matching SS 454 models from 1970-1972 can fetch six-figure prices. The wide 28-year production span ensures there's an El Camino available for almost any budget, from a simple project to a restored showpiece.
Buying Tips
Check for rust in the cargo bed, rear window channel, floor pans, and frame rails, especially near the rear axle.
High-performance SS models are often cloned. Verify engine codes and VINs to confirm authenticity, and look for original documentation if possible.
Inspect the bed floor for signs of heavy use or damage, as clean, original beds are rare.
Test the tailgate hinges and latches for smooth operation, as replacement parts can be difficult to find for certain years.
Prices range from $100 for project cars to $172,500 for concours-level, high-performance examples.
