Supercharged LSA V8-Powered 1978 Chevrolet El Camino 'El Camaro'

This 1978 Chevrolet El Camino, known as 'El Camaro', features an extensive modification blending the classic charm of a 1969 Camaro. Equipped with a supercharged 6.2-liter LSA V8 engine from a modern Cadillac CTS-V and Camaro ZL1, the pickup embodies both vintage design and contemporary performance. The build includes Camaro front and rear fascias, COPO ZL1-style hood, and a full 1969 Camaro interior conversion. A true showpiece, it has won awards at the 2025 Bowtie Nationals and 2025 Piston Power show.
