1960 Chevy El Camino Daily driver survivor restoration , this is the one 4 you

So here is the story on this car/truck. I found in a friends back yard about 3 years ago. It was very rough but salvageable so a deal was struck and i dragged it home. I ran the vin number and learned that was built in GM's San Jose plant and was originally white. it is/was a 283 v-8 three on the tree manual trans car. All the history i have on the car is that the man i bought it from took at in trade for a bad debt quite some time ago and had no interest in it so it sat in a field for 17 years waiting for me to find it. When I did find it it was rough. still had the 283 and three speed but the intake was off the engine so I assumed it was junk. turns out it was ok. and intake a distributor and some tinkering later we had it running the same weekend we got it home. I refer to it as a Survivor restoration. The time and effort went into making it all work as a modern car should while leaving the appearance as "as found" as was feasible. Below I'll list the things that have been done to the car and the things it still needs. Before you ask why it is for sale let me simply say that i used to have a wife and a house with a large garage. and now I have an apartment and too many vehicles for my assigned parking space and leave it at that. So. Since I got the car it has received=New brakes. Completely new. pgraded to power brakes with new booster and master cylinder. converted to disc brakes in the front with new calipers rotors wheel bearings. Re-built in drums in the rear with all new wheel cylinders springs . cables and all shoe attachment hardware as well as new shoes and new drums. The car has full air ride suspension with 2 air compressors a 5 gallon air tank 3/8 air line . 8 valves for full FBSS control an AVS 7 switch wired controller in the car and an all up all down wireless remote for scaring kids in parking lots. When the brakes and air ride where done all suspension bushings were replaced as well including upper and lover "A" arm bushings in front. trailing arm bushings in the rear as well as panard bar bushings in the rear. Power steering was added in the form of a 605 steering gear conversion and addition of a power steering pump and pressure/return lines. at that time all steering linkage was replaced including idler arm and all of the 3 piece tie rod assembly and all"A" Arm ball Joints as well Less than 5k miles on brand new b. f. Goodrich radial TAs i forget what size but they don't rub anywhere even when the car is dumped all the way down. and they look pretty good. After driving it for a while with the 3 speed manual I realized that it simply wasn't going to work for me in California where the median freeway speed is north of 70 MPH so the three speed was tossed in favor of re-built turbo 350 automatic transmission. Replaced the leaking fuel tank with a new 67-72 El Camino fuel tank to solve a host of issues with fuel gauge and to upgrade to a larger 22 gallon fuel capacity. Shortly after the trans swap the 283 developed a nasty rattle about 3000 rpm that I can only guess was a wrist pin going bad. so a re-built vortec 350 was installed. the engine is stock. but it came out of a 3/4 ton truck so it has 4 bolt mains and a mild rv cam. this engine does not have roller rockers but the block will accept them should you want to hop it up later on. An all aluminum 4 core radiator was also added at this time. I also still have the original 283 in running but needs re-built condition should you want it. With the engine upgrade we also added modern 100 amp alternator instead of the factory generator. I was planning on adding a fair bit of stereo at some point in the future. After fighting a number of electrical gremlins i decided to give up the fight and had the car completely rewired upgrading to a modern 9 circuit fuse panel and eliminating the rats nest that was under the dash. so all the switches are new headlight. gnition. hi/low/beam etc. all the factory gauges were non functional so i had new stewart warner gauges installed in the factory dash so everything works except the speedometer. it needs a cable and a drive gear for the 350th trans. (oil pressure. fuel. temp and voltmeter. )All headlights were replaced as well as the all of the riveted in headlight adjuster mounts because they had become brittle and too broken to properly support the headlights. tail light lenses were all replaced as well. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////Add stuff i forgot here/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////So I'm going to start on the list of stuff that the car needs by talking about the big thing that everyone wants to know. Rust. Does the car have rust?The answer is yes. and no. When I got the car it had been sitting in a field for decades with no back window so it naturally filled up with water and rusted out the already replaced floor pans that these cars are known rusting out. the floor was gone. Completely gone. honestly i think the exhaust was holding the seat up there was nothing there. (See pictures)One of my first projects was to replace the entire floor pan. This is not patch panels. this an entire new floor pan that extends from the middle of the fire wall {toe boards} to the rear of the cab and beyond into the "Smugglers box" behind the rear glass. where the passenger foot wells would be in the station wagon version of this platform. This area is now home to the air ride compressors/valves/storage tank. The serious rust issues have been dealt with. however. there is some rust still in the car that would need to be dealt with should you want to do a more cosmetic restorationI tried to show it in the pictures but not sure how clear it is going to be. there is rust through on the false floor of the bed. and a bit in the sheet metal panel under that . what would have been the floor in the wagon version this is fairly easy to repair with flat sheet metal should you want to. he rear quarters are shoving some bubbling. the drivers side down low on the rear portion is looking rough. it's ok for a driver but i fear you start poking at that and it will get bigger. fortunately these patch panels are readily available. passenger side is similar but more issue with the lip above the wheel opening . lastly the rear deck has lived a hard life . mostly from speaker installations gone bad but also weakened by some rust through and pitting. again fairly simple flat panel repair. Rocker panels seem solid for a car this age. some pinholes but no signs of cancer. Next up. the car needs interior. the floor has been replaced and dyno-mat insulation installed on the entire surface including the back wall behind the seat. after market carpet has also been installed. but the car has no headliner. sun and heat have rotted it away years ago. All of the ribs and trim and attachment hardware are intact. but headliner is gone. The doors are similar in that they are complete but years in the sun have done in all the soft bits. Both doors need to be refurbished. I installed new seals on the outside edge of the doors but the guts need window felts glass runs . seals and door panels replaced. Doors are complete with glass and regulators. they roll up and down but because all the soft parts are worn away its a bit of work to operate them usually requiring pulling over and using both hands. Um heater. the heater core holds water and should work but the hoses for the under dash venting has turned to dust. i was eventually going to install a vintage air or similar heat/ac solution but being a So Cal car i have put that idea way on the back burner. it is currently registered insured and driven daily in the great state Of California. not a trailer queen or a project. this is a car. simple as that. there is room for improvement but nothing that would keep it from being your daily transportation. I'm sure I'm forgetting tons. any questions feel free to ask. sorry. not looking for trades at this time. Thanks for looking. parky.
