Vehicle Description
Why This Car Is Special
This cool Dodge pickup has just the right amount of patina and more
options than you'd expect. It is a cool custom cruiser that is sure
to impress.
Mechanical
The Slant Six engine has been rebuilt with a 5-angle valve job,
oversized stainless steel valves, Comp Cams springs, lifters and
pushrods, a Holley 390 CFM polished 4-barrel carburetor,
Offenhauser intake manifold, Offenhauser valve cover, Clifford
shorty header with side pipes and glasspacks, MSD ignition, coil,
wires and distributor. Cooling this engine is the job of a Champion
aluminum radiator with two electric fans with adjustable
thermostat. Other new parts include: NOS voltage regulator, clutch,
pressure plate and throwout bearing, universal joints, aluminum air
cleaner, PCV valve, power steering pump, brakes, shocks, seals,
bushings, alternator and battery. This all means that this Dodge is
ready to cruise and give you years of dependable performance. The
engine is backed by a tough 3-speed manual that is shifted on the
column. A/C has been added with an Old Air heat and A/C system.
Interior
Inside a vinyl bench seat takes you back to the 70s but the custom
aluminum gauge bezel with Auto Meter American Muscle gauges will
let you know this is not a stock 78 Dodge. A Pioneer App
touchscreen radio has been installed with smartphone accessories
and Bluetooth. This puts the sound through a box with 6 speakers
behind the seat. A Grant GT woodgrain steering wheel looks and
feels great and the cab is nice and quiet since soundproofing mat
was laid down under the carpet. The carpet and floormats are new as
well and look great.
Exterior
The Sunset Orange paint is original and has great patina. Wheel
Vintiques OEM Chrysler 63 series wheels with baby moon caps and
stainless trim rings look awesome! They are wrapped in BF Goodrich
radial TA tires. The bed has been redone with new Oak and
refinished strips. Blue dot taillights and a bed roll mounted
stop/tail/turn signal LED light has been installed. This truck has
the rear step bumper which looks great and is also useful. This
truck was coated with Ziebart undercoating since new and has never
had rust.
