1987 Dodge Dakota Base Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 3.9l on 2040-cars

          We have a 1987 Dodge Dakota 2WD reg. cab, long bed pickup for sale. It is equipped with the 3.9 L V-6 engine, A/T, P/S, P/D/B, & A/C (not working, compressor locked up). It is currently tagged & driven almost every day, on Maryland Street Rod tags. We bought it to pull the motor & transmission to put in her 1951 Studebaker, but the truck is so solid I couldn't bring myself to tear it apart. Instead, we bought 2 brand new front fenders (which had most of the major rust on the truck), and a brand new chrome rear step bumper (which had the rest of the rust). The pictures will show it is a very solid body, the only rust remaining is a spot on top of the drivers door rocker panel (see picture), the passenger side rear cab corner (see picture), and the passenger side rear wheel well on the bed (see picture). The drivers side rear wheel well is just starting to rust, but has not come through yet. The only rust not shown is around the windshield, pin holes that do leak when it rains. I have it taped over with electrical tape, which stops the leak & almost looks like sealing trim. The tires are in fair / good condition, the fronts could probably be replaced. It would make an excellent street rod / pro street pickup project for someone who was looking for a project, or could be used as it is. I have a '93 5.2 L (318) Magnum V-8 I had kicked around putting in it after we pulled the V-6 that could go along with the truck if wanted. It would be a bolt-in swap for the V-6. All the glass is good (very small chip in the windshield), the door winders work properly, and it has a rear slider window. We recently drove the truck, loaded with parts, to the Chryslers at Carlisle meet and back, so it is road worthy. BUT, if I were going a long distance, I WOULD trailer it. I'm just not that confident with the front tires. Transportation of this truck IS the buyers responsibility. Rear brakes & parking brake cables were just done, and we bought a new pair of front coil springs that are included. That's about all I can think of for now. If you have any questions, or want any more information, give us a call at 410-952-5919 and we'll be glad to answer you. We have started the truck at the lowest price we will accept with no reserve, but we reserve the right to stop the listing at any time due to it being for sale locally.

          P.S. - I started to swap over the interior (beige bench seat) with the blue bucket seat interior out of the 1993 Dakota parts truck we had (where the engine came from). MOST of the trim panels have not been installed yet, but ARE included with the truck (as is the stock bench seat if wanted). I have installed the inside remote control mirrors off the '93. The last 3 pictures are of the short bed off of the '93. It is included (if wanted) for the patch panels for the long bed.
