Took these a few weeks ago. Cannot believe this thing is 30 years old, runs and look like it did when he bought it new. Kinda rare in this is the first year of the 318, the front clip is unique to this year, and you never see a regular cab long bed from this generation.
The 318 first came out in 1957 as the poly motor. Then it was the LA, Witch turned into the magnum in 92.
True, but, it didn't show up in the Dakotas for quite some time. I remember asking about availability of a V-8 when I was looking at them. (80's....) I was told: "It doesn't need one.".... at which point, I just left.
Put it in my shed, nice truck, great colors. The 1st 318 was 58 but a diff engine the trucks the 318 in 59, 57 & 58 they the venerable 315. 67 was the 318 w? hydraulic as we new it for years. What a great engine even cross brand drivers can't find fault!

Have the twin to your truck and mine is also 4x4 198000km. Love it one the best I have owned.
I just bought the twin to your Dakota. Also V8 automatic and 4x4 long box. Been looking for awhile just randomly came a cross it. It still has the plastic caps on the rear bumper, and the in terior is mint. Love my newest find.
