Should i buy another lil red(dakota that is)

[78 Red Express]

well its time to buy another vehicle that will be my daily driver, as luck may have it there is a 92 dakota lil red express for sale about $4800 obo supposedley in great shape, 80 k, no mods, two sets of rims, 318, 232 hp, AC, new fuel pump, #21of 32 made. has exhaust hooked up on it aswell. thing is im a 18 year old kid with a 78 lil red express with nos etc, about 600hp. should i really go for another rare truck, especially a dakota lil red express?? its a 3 hour drive to where it is so i dont want to go out and be dissapointed.

i would....maybe you can race a vette or ricer or sumthin along the way... anybody that challenges you...

seriously, 4800 for a rare truck that sounds like its in great shape...better than the deal i got... 3600 for my Road Runner that was pretty much trashed...ran good though. interior was real bad.

what could it hurt? besides gas and maybe the wallet depending how much gas costs... i would go for it.

Me, too. I never heard of a late model Express. Is there any documentation to show that it isn't something just screwed together by the owner??

I thought I was pretty well up on Dakotas!

Definately go for it man! my grandpa is a Used car dealer and Had a couple from Ohio trade him the 92 Lil' Red Dakota for 80's K-car limo. They were sent from Chrysler to a Custom Truck Shop where they converted (Stacks, Fiberglass stepside bed,Decals)
They did'nt make very many and they all had 318's Very sweet and rare truck my grandpa sold the one he had for 5 grand and it had 120 thou on it! GRAB IT QUICK!

yea im prett sure im going to get it, ooooh, cant wait a rare 78 and a ultra rare 92 and they are a perfecrt couple. pretty much they will never dip in price eh?? rare piece of history from dodge..

[78 Red Express]

oh what i meant is that it costs about $9000cdn, roughly $4500-$5000us dollars. is this still a good deal?? it has 83000 kilmoteres..

[1972roadrunner]

considering i bought my car for $3,600 with crappy interior, burned up tranny, water in the left front tires, chevy wheels, thin tires, cancerous spots, exterior was ALL yellow, and what was left of the interior was blue....

yeah, i'd say thats a hell of a deal!
