Impalas and then Malibu's were used as the base for the El Camino. Classified as a truck in TX. They had a 6 foot long bed, standard length SWB bed.

Malibus came around in the mid 60s. The Chevelle is a higher optioned Malibu. The El Co started off with the Impala, then to the Malibu which it outlasted until the late 80s.
