- Checking out the Details of a 1959 Chevy El Camino Restoration
1959 was the first year for the Chevrolet El Camino personal pickup models which were depicted as “more than a car - more than a truck”. This El Camino has the general styling of the 1959 Chevrolet passenger cars, but with a cargo capacity of 1,150 pounds. The box had a volume of nearly 34 cubic feet, was of double-wall design and had built-in steel skid strips. The El Camino was offered in thirteen solid and ten two-tone color combinations.
The Chevrolet El Camino is a coupé utility vehicle that was produced by Chevrolet between 1959-60 and 1964-1987. Unlike a standard pickup truck, the El Camino was adapted from the standard two-door Chevrolet station wagon platform and integrated the cab and cargo bed into the body.
Introduced in the 1959 model year in response to the success of the Ford Ranchero coupé utility, its first run, based on the Biscayne's B-body, lasted only two years. Production resumed for the 1964-1977 model years based on the Chevelle platform, and continued for the 1978-1987 model years based on the GM G-body platform.
Although based on corresponding General Motors car lines, the vehicle is classified in the United States as a pickup. GMC's badge engineered El Camino variant, the Sprint, was introduced for the 1971 model year. Renamed Caballero in 1978, it was also produced through the 1987 model year.

My first car that I bought in August of 1964 was a black 59 El Camino. It was a nice looking car, but not nearly as nice as this one.

Nothing like having an engine just full of chrome so it holds all the heat in and you overheat all the time great job buddy.😎👎
When it’s your car, you can do what ever you want with it.
