1966 El Camino
"Slicing through the doldrums of a becalmed afternoon or bending around a pinched curve on a twisting mountain road the Chevelle El Camino exhibited a fleetness of foot. Slim roof pillars plus petite pickup cabin put the driver right in the middle of the world." Hot Rod May 1966
 

 

For 1966 both the El Camino and its sister the Chevelle were redesigned. The cars grew a little and as a result GM offered the mighty 396ci in two versions. One with 275 bhp and the other with 350bhp. Performance was starting to come through.
