Current customer rating: (53 votes ) based onAbout this vehicleThis 1978 Dodge LIL RED EXPRESS is an original. The owner has had it for 1 year. The vehicle is drivable.Vehicle Details
Nice looking, dependable driver needing a little more maintenance and tlc. This is an authentic, 78 Lil Red Express that appears to have it's original drivetrain. Found passenger side rear frame rail, serial number that matches the other vin numbers. Alabama & Texas vehicle. My ownership experience has been positive and is as follows.
Purchased 07/30/2021.
Quickly realized the previous owner changed front spindles, rotors and wheels out with 1985(larger, 5.5" bolt pattern)or newer spindles, rotors and wheels. This was done several years ago as the rusty, several year old chrome aftermarket wheels matched exactly with the exception of the bolt pattern differences. Yes, I missed this. My 40 year, Chrysler parts Friend, thought that the, correct 4.5 inch rotors would fit the larger, 1985 up spindles. Close, but no cigar. My great friend had a professional machine shop bore the inner hub portion of each rotor. This inner hub rides closest to the spindle bracket so that the correct, larger races and bearings would properly mount on the larger spindles. Mission accomplished. All wheels are now correct, 5 x 4.5 inch bolt patterns.
