Street Freaks, Customs, Rods, Street Machines...60's 70's 80's
This is a 1987 Dakota Sport I built in the late 80's. The little Dak was originally a V6 w/5 speed. I got it as a write off and had to put a complete side on it.
I'm pretty sure it was the first 440 Dakota ever built because I had to fab everything for it.
To help it along I added a 500 shot of nitrous oxide.
I painted it Viper Red two years before the colour was available to the general public.
The rear tires were 21.5 X 15 M/T Sportsman Pros but it still had issues hooking up. O:)
I put a cage in it just in case. The frame was boxed and tubbed too.
The whole inside of the bed was replaced with polished aluminum.
It was a blast to drive and it won a lot of shows, and sometimes multiple trophies at some shows.
BTW - We went to the Woodward Dream Cruise one yera and the US Customs guy asked me to do a staged Burn Out right at the checkpoint. Let me tell you my wife wasn't impressed.
I reluctantly sold it in 2000 to build a NSS car.
The digital picture is of an old photo thus the grainy picture.
Enjoy!
