For Sale: 1978 Dodge Magnum in Mansfield, Texas

1978 Dodge Magnum XE

The Magnum name plate was used by Dodge on various vehicles but in this case we are referring to the Magnum produced between 1978 and 1979. These were the last vehicles to use the long running Chrysler B platform and the appearance was somewhat a rounded off Charger. They wanted a car that would be eligible for NASCAR and more aerodynamic which they were not getting with the Charger. This kept Richard Petty in a Mopar but it would be short lived following a mid season switch to Chevrolet. This 1978 is the XE trim level and mostly stock. It is painted in an off White color paired with the vinyl Landau top with opera windows and optional removable sun roof T tops. These cars featured a slope nose with 4 rectangular headlights that are mounted behind a clear retractable cover. The car rides on its original 15 inch wheels and hubcaps with Super Sport Futura GLS tires.

These cars had multiple engine options available to order and this one features its original 360ci 4 barrel motor. It has been totally rebuilt and runs great. The car came fully loaded with all options including power brakes, power steering and air conditioning. Paired with the motor is a 3 speed A727 automatic transmission that shifts smoothly. The suspension is Chrysler's original set up which included standard adjustable, longitudinal torsion bars, lower trailing links, and front/rear anti-sway bars.

These cars are packed with all the greatest features available for their age and on the inside the car features Tan upholstery. It is all in good condition and the power adjustable high back buckets are very comfortable and have 3 point retractable belts. Between the seats sits the center console with storage and shifter. Throughout the interior you will find the stock woodgrain trim. The dash pad is in good condition and the dash has been kept mostly stock with original gauges and controls. Under previous ownership an aftermarket Kenwood AM/FM/CD player was added. In addition to power seats the car came with power windows and even cruise control! The trunk is nicely carpeted and houses the spare as well as storage covers for the top pieces.

This neat car cruises around comfortably and just glides down the road. It comes with a clear Texas title.

This unique classic is yours for $13,500.00!
