Dodge Lil Red EXPRESS Truck



I remember being awestruck as a kid upon seeing Dodge's limited edition Lil Red Express Trucks.  Such was the case recently when I saw this beauty in the supermarket parking lot.

Dodge released the Lil' Red Express Truck in 1978 with a limited edition run of 2,188 units and it was so popular that they released an additional 5,000 plus units in 1979.  Not only were these trucks head turners, but they were super fast as well, sporting modified Dodge police engines.  

Needless to say, you didn't see these trucks too often in the wild back in the day.  This is even more the case nowadays, so it was a real treat to see this fully restored (or possibly original) Lil red Express Truck.
