1979 Dodge Power Wagon Prospector Edition Description

Here's your chance to STEP BACK IN TIME to 1979!! My uncle bought this truck NEW in 1979. He immediately put on custom aluminum wheels with aggressive tread tires and had the truck undercoated to protect against rust. He only drove the truck on special occasions over the past 38 years and it was never driven on snowy/salted roads. It was ALWAYS parked in a garage and he always started and drove it at least once a year. The truck has a total of 10,513 ORIGINAL MILES in it's 38 years!! Never in an accident! This truck is All Original except he replaced the original radio with a Radio Shack Cassette Stereo and added behind-the-seat Speakers. I believe the in-dash tachometer was also added by him when it was new. He kept the original wheels and tires in his basement all these years and they are now back on the truck. The original tires are basically NEW and still have the little rubber spikes sticking out of the tread. They can't have more than 10 miles on them!! The truck runs, but could use fresh gas and a tuneup. I did replace the battery and the fuel pump was leaking so we put a new pump and fuel filter in it.
I don't think he ever hauled anything in the back. The box is in "Like New" condition and he always had a custom rubber mat in the bed to protect it. When I lifted the mat up I was amazed to see that the bed still looks like the day it was made only with a little bit of dust. Maybe a few light scratches. The interior of the truck is also in Amazing condition! The seat was covered from the day it was new. I did take the cover off now. The custom aluminum rims are still like new, but the custom tires have gone bad over the years and have separating rubber in spots, so they are no longer safe to drive, but the original tires seem to be in Perfect condition! The truck does come with the custom wheels and tires if you like.
You're not likely to ever get an opportunity again to buy such a well preserved Dodge Power Wagon! It really is like Stepping Back In Time when you see this truck!!
