1978 Dodge D1500 Lil Red Express Pickup Collector Classic Truck

1978 Dodge Other Pickups Lil Red Express Description

You want a show stopper on your weekend outings and not pay too much, this is the vehicle for you.
When I drove an unrestored 1979 around Houston, I couldn't go anywhere that I didn't get thumbs up.
The standard HP 360, gears and L-60's made this one of the fastest vehicles 0 to 60 before the Viper came out.
And when was the last time you saw one of these babies at a car meet, if at all?
Only about 7,500 made and only about 700 of the 1978's left and 2,500 of the 1979s.
Think of it as Farmtruck in a really nice pair of Levis and plaid shirt.
Come guys and gals too. This thing needs to go, but I can't give it away. So let's make a deal.
