Its a truck that dodge made in limited numbers. It had big stack exhuast like tractor tailers do. A decal or was it paint (what ever) thing on the side that said Lil Red Express. Thank you barret jackson auto auction for that piece of information that i learned from watching your show about cars that people sell for lots of money.

And it pretty much looked like this.

sorry, I messed that quote up. I don't know how the hell I did that.

I knew a person that had one. Brought it in one day so everyone at the shop where I use to work could drool over it. No one understood him....

Apparently it had some kind of special motor, like a V8 or something....

Little Red's were produced in '78 and '79. They came from the factory with a 360 cubic inch(5.9liters for you tuner folk) engine. Fastest production truck til the cyclone/typhoon.

Yuppers, love 'em. The Warlocks are nice too.

Not only was it the fastest production truck at the time, for 1978 it was the fastest production vehicle made in America period, even faster than the vette
