LT1-Powered 1968 Chevrolet El Camino
This 1968 Chevrolet El Camino is a stunning restomod featuring a modern LT1 engine swap from a 2022 Chevrolet Camaro, paired with a Hydra-Matic 10L80 transmission. Finished in blue with a black interior, it sports high-gloss Koa wood panels in the bed, billet hinges, an aluminum radiator, and a Ford 9.0-inch rear end. The suspension is upgraded with Hotchkis components, and it rides on 17-inch American Racing wheels with Nitto NT555 G2 tires. This vintage truck is equipped with power-assisted front disc brakes, a body-color bed cover, tinted glass, and LED taillights. Inside, it features vinyl-wrapped bucket seats, Dakota Digital gauges, and more advanced electronics.
