Price: US $7,000.00
I have a 1979 Dodge Lil Red Express for sale. Truck started in Ohio and was sold in auction in 1998. It then went to North Carolina for a few years and was sold to a collector in Nashville, TN. Was owned there for 5 years before I picked it up. I have gone through the truck and replaced rear brake shoes/drums and all hardware. New cables for emergency brake. Front brakes to include wheel bearings as well as rotors and pads were replaced. Calipers on front were rebuilt to insure safety and reliability. New master cylinder and front brake lines. The exterior wood has been cleaned up and restained. New suspension to include KYB shocks on all 4 corners. Body mounts and bushings were replaced. Interior was reupholstered to include bench seats and glove box door. Truck came with a Tuff wheel but I also have a standard D150 wheel that I acquired through a lot of parts that I purchased at a swap meet. I have a rear slider window that will come with sale along with any extra parts I can locate.
Engine and trans rebuilt about 5 years ago. Truck was repainted about the same time. Truck had power windows installed but I have original manual cranks. A sunroof was installed at the factory in 1980. No leaks. I am including a Cd player as well as small subwoofer and 2 speakers. Everything is installed and works great. I never affixed the CD player in dash because I have considered relocating it to glove box for a cleaner look.
New starter. New fuel lines. Fuel tank has been flushed and cleaned.
New battery, belts, and fluids to include coolant, oil, trans/filter, and differential.
Truck has headers with no cats. Gives it a great sound.
Should be a fun driving project that just requires finishing touches of next owner. I am a ford guy and have run out of time to play it. I get compliments all the time as these truck as becoming rarer.
