X2, No SS El Camino in 1967, But The 396 could still be ordered in the 67 El Camino.

Thanks guys, my 67 was originally a 283 it looks like from the 3 as the third letter in the VIN, it has a powerglide tranny do you think that was original?

[1980SteelBeast]

Powerglides were in most 2nd gens,so Im sure thats original.

If the VIN plate reads 13380 then it was originally a 6-cyl car, the standard series with a V8 would have 13480. A Malibu series (or Custom) with the 6-cyl will have 13580 starting the VIN and the V8 will have 13680.

The Powerglide was the only available optional automatic transmission for th 6-cyl, the 283, and the 327. The 396 engines could also order a Powerglide or the beefier TH400. A manual 3-speed was the base/standard transmission behind anything.

There WAS an SS in 67.

I know this because a used car salesman told me his was an ultra rare SS.

Not trying to steal this thread ether but is there such a download for 1965 El Camino ?

[PFlo]

PRFCT, if you take the same link and change the 7 in 1967 to a 5 for 1965 it should open up the specs for the 65 El Camino

No SS until 1968
