Bid for the chance to own a 396-Powered 1967 Chevrolet El Camino 4-Speed at auction with Bring a Trailer, the home of the best vintage and classic cars. SS versions would debut in 1968 and firmly establish the El Camino as a muscle car/truck. The new El Camino shared the same powertrains, including high performance engines with the Chevelle. One other change though was the spark plugs, which got a new seating design for 1970. Pretty much everything else stayed the same internally. Originally based on the Impala, the El Camino lasted only two years, but reappeared in 1964 based on the Chevelle. In 1970, Chevy bored out the 396 cid big blocks by 0.03 from 4.094 to 4.125, which raised the total displacement to 402 cid. After seeing the success that Ford was having with its car/truck Ranchero that debuted in 1957, Chevrolet offered the new El Camino (meaning “The Road” in Spanish), in 1959.
