Vehicle Description
STK 2534 1990 Dodge Dakota SE Convertible
Technically, the Ford Model A Ford pickup had a removable roof, but
once that pioneering model left the scene it took a half-century
before another automaker decided to again test the waters. Enter
the 1989-91 Dodge Dakota Sport convertible, built by Dodge in
partnership with the American Sunroof Corporation (ASC). The
mid-size Dakota was a great candidate for the conversion, but the
anticipated demand was never realized - basically a 'convertible
pick-up' was the answer to a question that the car-buying public
never asked. After three years Dodge's contract with ASC was
fulfilled - total production was 3,759 units. As a result, this
1990 Dodge Dakota Sport, partially restored back to original, is
one of the rarest MOPARS on the planet. The full-body re-spray
(2003) is in very good condition and chrome bumpers along with
chrome bed rails provide sharp accents. The Dakota sits comfortably
on a 15" set of Ultra aluminum wheels with BFGoodrich radial tires.
The white convertible top and plastic window wrap neatly around a
factory roll bar and are in excellent condition. Its original
interior was also refreshed - seats were reupholstered in
blue/white vinyl. Dashboard, carpeting and door panels are all nice
and a factory AM/FM/Cassette stereo is housed in the dash. Other
comfort and safety features include: air conditioning, tinted
windows, gauge package, power steering and power disc/drum brakes.
The Dodge is powered by a rebuilt (140k) 3.9L V-6 that is stock and
puts out 125bhp and 195lb/ft of torque. A 5-speed manual
transmission and factory differential back the V-6. Steering is
power assisted, power brakes are disc/drum and the suspension is a
stock set-up. This very rare Dodge Dakota Sport convertible is a
solid, reasonably priced performer that is waiting for a new MOPAR
owner. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".
