For Sale: 1987 Dodge Dakota in Kentwood, Michigan

Vehicle Description

• This vehicle is located at our Indianapolis facility - 2461 Reeves Rd #194, Plainfield, IN 46168 •

This 1987 Dodge Dakota is a purpose-built street machine that blends old-school muscle with aggressive styling and modern upgrades. Finished in sleek black with bold orange racing stripes, it stands out with a menacing presence that's backed up by serious performance. The interior is custom-finished in black and loaded with functional upgrades, including a TCI shifter, full working gauges, tachometer, and a powerful Kicker stereo system. Under the hood, it packs a fire-breathing 440 V8 equipped with a 525 solid lifter cam, Edelbrock Torker intake, electronic ignition, vacuum pump, and a fuel cell fed by an electric fuel pump. Paired with a stout 727 automatic transmission and 3.70 gears, this truck is built to launch hard and pull strong. It also features power steering, power brakes, Torque Thrust wheels wrapped in massive 315 drag radials, and a custom 3-inch exhaust that lets it breathe-and roar-freely. With only 13,000 miles on the fresh motor, this Dakota is more than just a head-turner-it's a street-legal beast. Additional details like LED headlights with HALO rings, a bed cover, and a custom truck cover round out its show-and-go personality.

Introduced in 1987, the Dodge Dakota carved out a unique place in truck history as the first mid-size pickup-bridging the gap between compact trucks and full-size haulers. Built to offer the utility of a truck with more manageable dimensions, the Dakota quickly gained popularity for its versatility and available V8 power, which was rare in smaller trucks at the time. The first-generation model set the tone with bold styling and solid engineering, making it a favorite among drivers looking for something different. Today, modified examples like this one highlight the platform's potential for performance, turning a once-practical pickup into a high-powered custom icon.
