The first-generation Elky featured a straight-six engine as standard, but customers were also treated to two V8s. The most powerful of the lot packed 335 ponies, which pale in comparison to what this fellow hides under the hood.
450 horsepower come courtesy of a small-block LS6 with ceramic-coated headers and a crossflow aluminum radiator with twin cooling fans. A custom engine cover is also featured, painted to match the silver finish of the body shell and red leather upholstery wrapping the Impala-sourced seats, armrests, and floor console.
Listed on AutaBuy.com at $85,000 or best offer, the El Camino flaunts a Lokar shifter connected to a 4L60-E automatic transmission. The electronically-commanded successor of the Turbo-Hydramatic 700R4 is perfectly suited for small-block applications like the LS6 we know and love from the fifth gen of the Corvette Z06.
“Many custom body mods” are featured, starting with the bumper ends moved tight to the body. The center hump on the front bumper was removed for a cleaner look, along with all bumper bolts. The seller has also welded the bumper seams, smoothed the tailgate, and moved the fuel filler to the bed. Lined with red-stained wood, the bed hasn’t seen any cargo since the build was finished 2,000 miles ago.
The Impala body molds add more visual drama to this one-of-one El Camino, which still features the original chassis. The red-painted Ford 9.0-inch rear axle with 4.11 gears is complemented by air suspension, Wilwood rotors and calipers on both ends, and BFGoodrich rubber wrapped around chromed wheels with a five-spoke design.
The Saginaw 605 power steering box is connected to a billet steering wheel rocking red leather on the rim. Elsewhere in the cabin, you’ll find Dakota Digital gauges, radio hiding in a custom drop-down panel, a smoothed dashboard, storage areas behind the seats, and A/C from Vintage Air. Power windows and locks, three-point seat belts, and a custom divider between the seats round off the list of goodies.
