This car (truck?) must have the most rare engine in the universe. Either that or a VERY talented machinist did a lot of custom work.

According to the write up "This 1966 Chevrolet El Camino Custom is a modified example that is powered by a 350ci V8 crate engine equipped with L78 aluminum cylinder heads,..."

Would like to know how they pulled that off; or put it on for that matter.

Other than the goofy description, and the modern 17 inch wheels (would look so much better with period correct 15s) I kind of like it. Especially the factory AC. Would be nice to have a 12 bolt.

No kidding ! That’s a fit of parts , and a machinist that I’m unfamiliar with to say the least
