"By combining truck and car, Chevrolet made it possible for utility vehicles to exhibit style and flair like nothing seen before in the workaday world. Its cargo box plainly made the El Camino thoroughly practical. Throw in all the comfort, convenience and class available optionally to Chevy car buyers and you had nearly the perfect practical vehicle. It was all those multi-purpose features that made the El Camino so much of an attraction during its long-running career, all those attractions in close-up color detail is here on these pages.

Look under the hood - at everything from mundane sixes to brutal 454 cubic-inch big-blocks. Get the feel from behind the wheel - surrounded by both Spartan accoutrements and lavishly optioned cockpits. See how everything worked - from stowing the spare to dropping the tailgate.

Turn the last page and you will know the El Camino inside and out."
