10 listings

First Generation Chevrolet El Camino for sale.

Chevrolet's first car-based pickup, built for just two years to answer Ford's Ranchero. Riding the full-size 1959-1960 platform, the first El Camino wears the wild batwing styling of the era. With only about 36,000 built across both years, clean originals are scarce and carry a premium for their rarity and styling.
