![]() Nowadays you can get the same look and experience, well a lot better actually, from the cheater slicks offered by Coker Tire. Upon delivery it was obvious it had led a tough life, however, the frame, floors, and body panels were in rock-solid shape, making it a perfect project. A deal was made and the Elky was headed to the East Coast. Plenty of guys drove their gassers on the street for daily transportation but come the weekend out came the Casler cheater slicks mounted to a set of black steelies and to the dragstrip. A lead online revealed a 1965 El Camino located in Long Beach, California, that seemed promising in the owner-supplied photos. The street gasser was the epitome of the street-strip car. This was still the era of a timing light, dwell meter, and feeler gauges (gotta love those solid lifter cams) in the trunk. And with this there was almost as much engine above the hood line as there was below. This was also the era of the tunnel ram single and dual quad with the dual four-barrel being the option of choice. The GMC 4- and 6-71 roots blowers were finding their way from the strip to the street. Hurst or Herbert and Meeks engine swap kits were the rage for swapping any engine into anything. Back in the day it would have been a small-block Chevy and with the advent of the late ‘60s the big-block began to settle in under the hood.

As horsepower output went up the somewhat anemic T-10 was either voluntarily replaced or replaced after it was “hand-grenade” via missed 2-3 shift or just too much torque.īut let’s get back to the rumble under the hood. If you have pictures of your favorite 1967 Chevelle El Camino youd like to share, especially one of a color I dont have yet, please contact me here. The tranny of choice for the Chevy crowd, still the most popular gasser brand, would be a T-10, followed by a Saginaw. Of course, this was the late-‘50s and ‘60s and any gasser worth its straight axle would be found with a four-speed with a Hurst Competition-Plus shifter resting inside. We should point out if you were really cool and into tuning your own V-8 you would have a three-pack of firewall gauges too. Ah the days of pumping hot oil and water into your car just to have the lines develop a leak and drip all over that new Tijuana discount carpet. Of course, the really cool guys had mechanical gauges. There was always water temp, oil pressure, and battery. IT'S PAINTED A SATIN BLACK ENAMEL THAT RESISTS FADING, CRACKING AND CHIPPING.Other interior appointments included the obligatory three-pack of Stewart-Warner 2-5/8-inch gauges (now available from Classic Instruments in 2-5/8-inch and old-style face) or other smaller face gauges.
