Offered here is a 1986 Chevrolet El Camino in tan with dark-brown lower-body accents over tan, which has been well-maintained over its life. The handsome exterior metallic tan and brown paint treatment on this combination mid-size car and pickup is in excellent condition overall, but with some scratches and minor marks. The finish is uniformly glossy across the vehicle. The lower portions of the body painted dark brown are in similar condition. Body-panel alignment and fit is at or above factory standards. The bespoke “flying buttress”-style B-pillars are perfect. Cabin glass and lighting lenses are clear and free of cracks or discoloration. Factory-applied emblems—including the handsome “bowtie” hood ornament, “El Camino” rear-fender badges, and “Chevrolet” grille lettering—remain in place and in excellent condition. Chrome bumpers front and rear (incorporating the taillights), as well as the “eggcrate”-style front grille, are similarly free of damage. Door handles show only very light patina from normal use and age. The cargo bed shows very minor wear from normal use. Stock, 14-inch steel wheels (with wire-wheel-style wheel covers bearing bowtie-branded center caps), are mounted on all-season 205/75 tires.

The interior tan color theme nicely complements the exterior hues. Tan vinyl upholstery in a classic vertical pattern covers the front split-bench seat and center armrest. Tan carpeting, protected with all-weather rubber mats, covers the cabin floor. Door panels are tan vinyl with matching lower carpet inserts. The El Camino-branded 2-spoke steering wheel is brown, and the dashboard combines both brown and tan. Trim for the full, 5-gauge analog instruments is black, as is the trim panel with “Chevrolet” emblem facing the passenger. Instrument and switchgear graphic markings are crisp. The shifter for the automatic transmission is steering-column-mounted. The lower-center-dash panel houses the HVAC controls and the stock Delco® push-button AM radio remains mounted.

Under the hood, the El Camino's original 5-liter GM V8 occupies a complete and stock engine bay. The under-hood surfaces are original and the engine bay has not been detailed. Viewed from below, the chassis is also complete and undamaged. Newer exhaust-system components are noted.

While the more than 150 high-definition photographs and the short walk-around-and-startup video available on the GarageKeptMotors website showcase this '86 El Camino in detail from every angle, including from below, we expect and encourage in-person inspections at our Grand Rapids, Michigan showroom. Please call to arrange an appointment in advance as our showroom is not open to the public. And feel free to get in touch anytime by phone or email if you have questions.

The rarity and uniqueness of the El Camino mean good examples, like this well-maintained tan candidate, always draw admirers and compliments. So, why choose between the comfort of a car and the usefulness of a pickup? You really can have it both ways!
