1987 Chevrolet El Camino SS

The El Camino is Chevrolet's car-based pickup, blending a comfortable coupe cabin with a useful cargo bed out back. It drives like a big, soft-riding coupe from the front seat, with the bed adding versatility you won't get in a regular car. Inside, the cabin is straightforward and roomy, with bench seating and plenty of space for two adults up front. The bed is the real draw, letting you haul everything from lumber to a weekend's worth of gear without needing a full-size truck. The SS is the El Camino for buyers who want the muscle-car look and feel, while the base model keeps things simpler and cheaper. Under the hood is a 5.0L V8 paired with an automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, giving it a relaxed, torquey character that makes it easy to haul a load or just cruise. The SS trim adds unique badging and a sportier appearance package, so you get the visual punch without changing the car's easygoing ride.
