Anyone know of any info of the Midnight Express? The sister of the Little Red Wagon.

 

its the black version of the little red. i think its better. im building one out of my 84

 

It's not just a different paint job. It was a 1 year and 1 year only pickup, instead of the typical 360 as was in the lil red express, most were equipped with a 440.

 

Anyone have a photo of the midnight express? never saw one.

 

 

Thanks. I like both the red/black. Anyone know how thick the wood siding on the bed sides was?

 

It wasn't very thick. Maybe 2 inches thick or so. I rebuilt a 79' Lil Red Express about 20 years ago. Someone made new wood slats for me for the sides (the originals were rotted) But they weren't very thick at all. Neither were the originals.

 

i knew a guy that had a little red. never seen a black. its like my dad said. " i knew a guy that saw a guy, whose brother , that had a cousin, that lived next door to a guy, that knew a guy named Bob that had one."

 

A little info on the Midnite here. I've seen a couple myself. It's just a L'il Red...in black.

Well Yes it is almost like the Red"Express", but I believe it cam w/440 Cu" engine while the Red had the 360 Cu" engine. I think the rest of the trucks were the same, except for the engines. I maybe wrong and have confused the Black w/the Warlock but there is info on the internet about all 3 models.
