1978 Dodge D-150 Warlock Stepside Pickup 318 V8 727 Automatic Sunroof 8-Track
This is a 1978 Dodge D-150 Warlock pickup truck. This is an original Warlock, ot a clone. It was purchased new locally by a friend of the family who sold it to my father just a few years ago. Through it's life it has spent very few nights outside of a garage, nd was always well cared for. The truck received Ziebart rust proofing when new and has never had any rust. At the time my father acquired the truck the original paint was beginning to look tired and the stripes had faded badly.The pickup was professionally gone over and received a full basecoat/clearcoat refinish using PPG urethane in the original black pearl. Accurate reproduction stripes were installed. At the same time the original 318 was rebuilt and a 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor was installed. The 727 transmission was serviced as well, nd the original General tires, till on it after all those years, ere replaced with a set of new Generals. The speedometer/odometer had stopped working so a used assembly was installed. At this time it shows 64,528. I would estimate, nowing what I do, hat the actual mileage is in the 85, 00 range but I can't say for sure. The truck had an aftermarket radio which I replaced with an original Chrysler AM-FM-8-track stereo. The radio works but the dial slips and the 8-track is not currently working. The truck has an aftermarket sunroof that was professionally installed when the truck was fairly new. The wooden bed floor has not been replaced and is showing its age. There are cracks and some bad spots. All of the chrome and trim looks nice though it does have normal wear & tear. The door locks need some repair as the key will not reliably unlock them from the outside. The interior is in very nice condition with only minor wear and tear. The driver seat frame is slightly loose and needs a minor repair. The original dash looks great with no cracks. The heater works, nd all windows work properly. Custom exhaust was installed including functional side pipes. The truck has a good (and plenty loud) sound to it. The engine runs great and the transmission shifts very nice; I really like the feel it has, ot hard but not "mushy" shifting either. All in all, his is a great truck to drive and own, nd a real head turner. I inherited this truck from my father, he second owner, nd thought long and hard about keeping it. Since I don't have the time or space to devote to it, 've decided to find it a new home. This is being sold, f course, s-is with no warranty. Should you have any questions at all please let me know. Please note that, t the time of the photos, he truck needed washing.
