This auction is for a base model, 1985 Chevrolet El Camino with a 350 V8 engine and Throttle Body Injection (TBI). Accessories are serpentine belt driven. This El Camino also has a GM Performance parts 4L60 overdrive transmission. A custom made mandrel bent "Y" pipe merging into a GM high flow three way catalyst. Starter is GM Performance 502 HO starter. This El Camino was built by me (GM Certified Master Technician), for my Father, using only genuine GM parts. This is a well sorted daily driver and is a California Air Resources Board (CARB) smog certified conversion. You won't find many conversion that are this well thought out, it looks absolutely stock and best of all- that nest of horrible vacuum hoses is gone and the often problematic 4ME Quadrajet is history too, replaced by the latest version TBI ECM and backed up by the best 700 overdrive GM ever assembled the MD8 (original equipment in 1993 LT1 Camaros and Corvettes) this trans is rare and bullet-proof for this application. The engine is from a mid 1990s (CARB certified as a 1991 but its actually a '94 or '95) GMC 1-ton truck that was totaled with 4,218 miles on the odometer. I bought the entire truck from the dealership and set the powertrain aside for this project. I finished this project in 2011. It's been driven about 2k miles since completion because my Father's health failed and he passed away. My Mother kept it sitting in the car port for awhile but recently someone stole part of the rear window moldings so she's decided to part with it. Questions welcomed.
