Vehicle Description
Cool Classic Rides, Dealer #DA8690 is excited to offer another
classic with this 1979 Dodge Lil' Red Express. With just 5,118
produced in 1979 and less than 7,300 between the two years it was
in production (1978-79) this is one rare ride. Known as the "Last
American Hotrod", this is one badass truck. At the time, due to the
environmental regulations, all cars had to have a catalytic
converter but since the lil' red was a truck, it was not required
to have one. Knowing this, Dodge essentially designed the truck as
a muscle car with a bed. With a modified eight cylinder 360 police
engine that can produce 225 horsepower, the Lil' Red Express was
the fastest American made production vehicle when released. This
was a full, box off restoration and this truck is in incredible
shape and condition throughout. The body of this forty one year old
truck is flawless. We have given it a fresh coat of factory
correct, red paint. The wood accents and bed liner has all been
replaced and it looks amazing. Chrome exhaust stacks are in perfect
condition and really make this ride shine. Brand new, factory
correct Lil' Red Express stickers, striping and new wheels and
tires complete this classic truck. The interior has also been given
a fresh coat of red paint to match the exterior. New seat
upholstery and carpet really clean this cab up nicely. It even has
the original CB radio. The dash is original, complete with wood
grain accents. This truck is absolutely show ready and dressed to
impress. A truck like this is an absolute gem and so hard to come
by. We are so proud of what we have accomplished and know this is
one cool, classic ride that will not last long. FULL PRICE
PURCHASES, over $12,000. Some restrictions may apply. We always
highly recommend a professional inspection, or a private viewing
before any purchase. Make sure you know exactly what you are
buying. We do not sell show cars, we sell nice daily drivers, made
to get out on the open road. These vehicles do not drive like brand
new vehicles, because they are not brand new. They will often be
bumpy, noisy and in some cases, just plain rough but that is what
happens when you buy a classic ride and if that does not sound like
something you want, we encourage you to shop elsewhere. All of our
descriptions are the personal opinions of Cool Classic Rides. Note
that the mileage listed is considered either over mechanical limits
or exempt status, not actual mileage unless otherwise noted. We
also are always open to talk trades, so let us know what you have.
