Re: Value of an El Camino rustbucket?

In answer to your question, without knowing the year or the true condition,

I can only tell you this. A 1987 Chevrolet El Camino SS 2D with all the 
amenities provided by the factory, according to Kelly's Blue book would be

worth the following.....
Excellent Condition - $5855.00
Good Condition - $5380.00
Fair Condition - $4775.00
Poor Condition - N/A
1987 was the last year the El Camino was manufactured in the United
States.
General Motors Australian subsidiary, Holden still builds a model similar
to 
the El Camino. Theirs is based on the Grand Prix and can be seen at this
web 
site. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holden_Ute
General Motors has no plans
on 
im****ting them at this time.
I hope this information is useful in your endeavor to rid your
neighborhood 
of a rusting eyesore.
