hello all... new one to the site... i saw that you guys had a vin decoder on here.... but it doesnt tell me what i need to know about the 60 caminos.... my vin plate reads as follows 01280S243455 from what i understood on a couple other sites thats broke down too( see below)... and i just wanted some second oppinions on how rare a find(if at all) this is and if you can tell me what engine and tranny is in it thanks a mill...

01280S243455

0-1960
12-Biscayne V8
80-2 Door Sedan Pickup
S-St. Lous, Mo
sequence #-243455

There is no way to tell what engine and trans the elky had. All we know for sure is that it had a V8, so it was likely a 170-hp/283. There were optional versions of the 283, 230-hp, 250-hp,280-hp, 305-hp, 320-hp, 335-hp. But according to the literature its not clear if you could get all these versions.



There may be more info on the body tag if you want to post that.


But all that aside, 1960 El Camino is a keeper, only 14,163 were made not matter what engine it had.
