Dual square headlights, a square opening for the egg crate grille and all this in a rectangle front end. Square and rectangle design abound on all surfaces of this car/pickup version. If it's Sunday let's go to meetin' if it's Monday back to work! Purchased from the original owner after being in storage for 20 years, garage kept since, over $6,000 has been spent to put this truck back on the road safely, and sporting a title verified 44,015 original miles it shows as nearly new. Someone from GM thought that was a good idea, and hence the EL Camino was born, although technically the Ford Ranchero beat them to it, (1957 as opposed to 1959), but hey it's a great story! For consignment Hi-O Silver two tone El Camino Conquista right out of 1986 and looking very nicely preserved. The concept of a truck-like car came from a farm woman in Australia who wanted a truck to haul hay on the weekdays, and a car she could drive to church on Sunday. It should be noted that these moldings could be ordered installed on a standard model, so the presence of the moldings alone cannot be a determining factor. Essentially, the only option that was included with the Conquista package, was the full-length, lower body and half-fender opening bright moldings: “Fender and Body Side Moldings” (RPO: BX8).
Door rail for 59 el camino full#
Therefore, optioning out an El Camino as a Conquista did NOT mean it automatically came with the aforementioned options, a full gauge package, AC, power windows and locks. The package was available with all powertrain combination options, all interior option combinations, and did not “require”, or include options such as the bumper impact strips, bumper guards, bed cargo rails or tie downs, bucket seats, center console, or sport gauges. The “Conquista” logo decal was located towards the right-hand lower portion of the tailgate on the '78 model, and from '79 & up they were relocated to the right- hand upper portion of the gate. Also featured are bright paint break moldings along the upper side of pickup box, and tailgate bright moldings along lower side of body and over wheel openings.
The center section of the body side, the hood and lower portion of the tailgate are set off by a special accent color. The basic body color appears on the roof, and upper portion of pickup box, lower body sides, and tailgate. The Conquista package consisted of a striking paint and molding treatment. Not unlike the “Super Sport” Model, the “Conquista” (RPO: D91), is strictly an appearance-only package, and it also cannot be verified by the VIN.
