Nice dealer demo. This must have been done earlier in 64, Because Chevrolet introduced in 64 the Chevy 2 Van, & was later known as the Chevy Van with rear wheel drive, & a inline 6 up front, & in 64 this would be the last year for Corvair 95s which were the Corvan, & Rampside the Greenbrier 95 Sport wagon would be discontinued the following year in 65. I still own a 64 Greenbrier Sport Wagon.
The 1964 El Camino was the right truck at the right time (note that within three years, the Falcon/Ford/Fairlane Ranchero had only caught up to the El Camino). And the Fleetside had come a long way from the 1960 original, while the 1964 Styleside was only beginning to catch up with its 1961 counterpart...
The 67 el camino was my favorite. With the 396 engine and 3 speed auto trans. To bad it wasn’t available in the SS like the chevelle. But could be ordered with most SS options.
In my opinion, the 1960 to 1966 C series trucks were ugly. Body lines and grill could have been designed differently. The 1967 to 1972 models are much better designed, just my opinion.

My 1964 Chevy p/u had a 348 cid. Big block V- 8 engine with HD 3 spd. Transmission / clutch .
I bought it in 1982 - Great truck - no fancy anything .

these films were always done very early and usually don't focus on the performance cars because they had not been finalized yet.
@@autochronicles8667 I made no mention of performance cars; The Greenbrier was a passenger window van built on the Corvair platform.

Too bad the c10’s all turned into rust buckets.
