Gabriel announces giveaway of 1967 El Camino

Gabriel has begun a sweepstakes in honor of the 50th anniversary of the HiJackers brand. They are partnering with RTM, the producers of the PowerNation automotive television program, to give away a custom 1967 El Camino truck.

Gabriel introduced HiJackers, the first air-adjustable shock absorbers, in 1967 as a solution to restore balance to vehicles carrying or hauling heavy loads. However, they also became popular with the muscle car and street racing crowd in the late ‘60s and early ‘70s.

Jeremy Bumpus and Lawrence “LT” Tolman, co-hosts of PowerNation TV’s Truck Tech show, will be building the one-of-a-kind HiJackers El Camino.

“2017 is a big year for us to celebrate,” says Jonathon Gore, director of marketing at Gabriel. “The company celebrates two big milestones, 50 years for HiJackers and 110 years for Gabriel. It was a natural fit to commemorate this year in a giveaway of an iconic vehicle that embodies a hard working attitude combined with a wild streak of power and performance.”

Those interested have until the end of August to enter the 2017 sweepstakes, and can enter at Gabriel’s website.
