Every year the government confiscates cars for many reasons. These are sold by the Ministry of Finance. Although most cars are not worth seeing, sometimes gems appear in the showroom of Domeinen Roerende Zaken.
This time there is a Chevrolet El Camino for sale. You can bid on cars through the government website. If you make the highest bid, you can take the car. This amount is not what you should pay for your recently purchased car. On top of your bid is a ‘buyer’s fee’ of 15 percent.
Chevrolet El Camino
The government-issued Chevrolet El Camino is from 1966 and therefore second generation. In the nose is eight cylinders with a stroke volume of 5.4 liters, which, according to RDW, is good for 129 hp. The quintessential America has an LPG system, which lowers fuel costs to some extent.
The pickup has had a Dutch license plate since 2000 and has 87,973 miles (141,579 km). There is a small ‘but’: the ad says that the key is no longer available.
Between 1964 and 1967, more than 137,000 second-generation Chevrolet El Caminos were reportedly sold in America. Only 38 copies – of the second generation – are registered in the Netherlands. Common, unique in the Netherlands, ‘awarded’ by the government for cost 10.888 Euro excluding additional costs and taxes. So you can take it once for that amount.
Lovers consider the liver to be the first rare generation
Although the American stands in any case, the first generation is the most popular look among enthusiasts. The model, produced from 1959 to 1960 (over 36,000 units), is based on the Impala of the period. The car has a more attractive design with the famous ‘fins’ of the Impala, and according to many, it is more beautiful than the second generation Chevrolet El Camino.
Leen Herweijer has imported the first such generation from America and proudly talks about her tail fin-embellished artwork in the ‘Your Garage’ section.
