For sale is my 1998 Dodge Dakota R/T. I bought this truck out of Florida last year and proceeded to restore it mechanically. There is *zero rust* on this truck; it is beautiful underneath.
Extensively restored mechanically. Some highlights include:
-New water pump, thermostat, fan clutch
-New Belltech suspension
-New timing chain and cover
-New control arms, axles, wheel bearings
-New rear drums, pads
-New tires, including spare
-Powdercoated factory wheels
-All fluids changed, incl. differential and transmission
-Brand new interior - headliner, Corbeau seats, carpet kit
-Rear roll pan and bumper delete (factory bumper included)
-....and more
The Dakota is a rare first-year model with just over 109,000 miles. It is equipped with the factory transmission cooler and the transmission shifts flawlessly. I just put over 1,000 miles on it through the Florida/Alabama panhandle on a road trip without issue.
Issues are cosmetic in nature. It has been repainted to a decent standard by previous owner to address notorious clearcoat fade, but it is a 5-footer paint job with overspray and orange peel. Still, it presents very well with new decals applied in the correct locations.
I also have a bed cap for it if interested; will be included with purchase price if desired by buyer. Clean Florida title in hand. Only selling because I am moving out of state and can't justify moving eight vehicles.
