Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 27th year in the classic and muscle car business. When the Dodge Li'l Red Express Truck first launched in 1978, it wasn't just the fastest pickup truck on the road; it was the fastest American vehicle available on the market. The Express was the centerpiece of an "Adult Toys" marketing campaign, which included the Warlock and Street Van, that attempted to capitalize on the success of Hot Wheels toys. A Dodge advertisement asked "Remember when you used to play with trucks? You still can." This cool 1979 Li'l Red Express is an excellent example of Dodge's full-size toys. Lift the hood and you'll see the stout EH1 360 V8 that was based on Dodge's police interceptor engine with E58 heads and 850cfm carburetor. Additional features include power steering, power front disc brakes, air conditioning, A-727 LoadFlite automatic transmission, 9.25" rear end with 3.55 gears, wild dual exhaust with twin stacks

Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 27th year in the classic and muscle car business.

Additional features include power steering, power front disc brakes, air conditioning, A-727 LoadFlite automatic transmission, 9.25" rear end with 3.55 gears, wild dual exhaust with twin stacks sporting stainless steel heat shields, beautiful oak exterior trim and bed floor, AM/FM/Cassette stereo, and 275/60R15 B.F.G. Radial T/A's wrapped around correct chrome slotted "mags". As fun as it is to drive this rarity (only 5188 sold in '79), watching people's reactions to this beast is a hoot. "Yes, Virginia, they used to make real trucks"! This jewel dazzles with good paint, chrome, and stainless steel that contrasts beautifully with the fresh oak accents. Pure Americana. If this crimson cruiser scratches your itch, call the Texas Hill Country's premier source for classic trucks and the team that can make your dream a reality. Longnecks and shotguns not included.
