1979 Li'l red express truck for sale !!!SOLD!!!
« on: May 12, 2012 - 07:21:06 PM »
I have in 1979 Li' l red express truck for sale. As some of you may know, the Li' l red express truck was in production two years only, (78 & 79). I restored it in the winter of 2009-2010, and did not drove it much since, (about 3500 miles in two summers). It has a factory working A/C, full instrumentation, (including vacuum gauge and volt-meter, (a rare option), and a tachometer as well. It has a tuff wheel, bucket seats, original 15 X 8 chrome wheels and an AM/FM-CB radio. Everything has been redone, (suspention, brakes, direction, engine, tranny, ect...), but the undercarriage is not detailed. It is a very nice driver in excellant condition and it is fun to drive. If you want something to have fun with this summer, it' s a great oppurtunity. It has the factory 360 express under the hood, stacks, original chrome vlave covers and air-cleaner lid.  Truck is in Montreal, Canada. Asking $18000.00. Not interested in any trades. Thanks

Robert        !!!SOLD!!!

back in the mid 70s I needed a truck to get around & wanted a Warlock so badly , tried to buy a few but the bank kept turning me down , I changed banks & I did eventually get a Warlock a few years later , used , loved that truck !
 I had to have a Warlock as they were available with 4 WD & big blocks , the Lil Red was less interesting as it was 2wd only .
 Still like them , good luck with the sale .

Thanks guys. I also love my truck very much, but I just bought a '71 Challenger and, since I' m no millionaire, the Li' l red truck has to go. Sometimes, we have to make choices in life...  Yeah Chryco, you are right, the Warlock was available with different power plants and colors, while the Li' l red trucks were all red and they all came with 360s and automatic, and they were all column shift. There was an option with red interior, ('Cuda hunter would love that!!!), but with the bench seat only, all buckets were black.  I would think this was a sport truck, and in from my point of viem, it' s the ultimate classic sport truck.  If you hear of someone looking for one, send it to me. It's a real nice truck and it' s fun to drive, and the A/C works!!!  (and the price is negociable...).  This is me working under the hood of my Challenger...LOL

Wow, you really could get anything under the hood of a Challenger, huh?  :bigsmile:

I was working at a restoration shop when they had a Lil' Red Express come through - I helped on the final touch-up and delivery of it, as well as some minor electrical stuff.  Was a neat little truck, and it gave me an appreciation for them.

Good luck with the sale!  Hope it goes to a good new home.

Thanks Viperman. I think it's one of the most interesting vehicle offered by Chrysler between 1975 and 1993.
