A couple of things come to mind on this one.

First these things are so darn rare, where are you going to find one in better shape? Big BUT, this era A body is a very difficult car to restore. Imran's 73 GTO has over $60,000 in NOS parts and he said he would never restore another 73-77 A body ever again. I have no idea where one would find the GMC Sprint emblems for example but I haven't look either.

Now, take a front clip from a Lemans + Lemans doors and then make another one of none LeMans GT or GTO pickup. biggrin

It would be a handful to restore, Ray is right about the parts, won't be easy finding anything you don't have.

I almost bought a 71 Sprint out of Edmonton many moons ago.  Checked it out on my way home from Vancouver on a business trip.  Unfortunately once again, looked much better in the pictures than in real life.  I really wanted to find an SP but no luck.no  Ended up getting a nice 70 4 speed SS Elky originally out of Sask. though.smile

I had a 74 ElCamino SS 454 back in 78-79. It was a cool, fast ride in it's time. It was 4 years old when I got it and had been painted already and I soon found out why. It was rusty. After the winter it was bubbling in the quarters and the floor had a hole in it. There is a mint one owner 77 that is on kijiji Toronto once and awhile for around $7500. They aren't that hard to find, but start with a complete non rusty one as the other guys said; There a bitch to restore!

Earl, are you sure about this? I bet there are guys on Board who never knew GMC sold a Sprint let along have ever seen one.

I think member Shelby GT was marketing a lime green one a short while ago-very nice with them swivel buckets and all. not much demand for these

Boy that one looks pretty good. I think it is priced accordingly given it needs an engine.

I know a guy who has an 87 El Camino that he is thinking of selling. He claims it is a mint Arizona car that has all of the options. 305 high output? I believe he is asking $6500.00. (Edmonton area.)

The 305 HO - L69 was not available in the El Camino but he may have added it.

Ya, the LG4 305 was the optional engine, V6 would have been standard. It is possible that it might have a LM1 350 if it was a California vehicle.

Hmmm, doubtful as I suggested to him that it was a 305 to which he agreed and added "high output with every option".
Not my favorite year, but it could be a fun vehicle for the price...

The title on this video is wrong. It's really a 1971.
