Replying to: stephen987 (Oct 18, 2008 5:02 am) Yup, it is the trend-setting 3200CS, whose roofline was borrowed by the '65 Corvair (ironically most modern BMW's have a beltline borrowed from the '60-'64 ' Vairs). The pic came from an article in automotive traveler.com. Replies to this message: stephen987 (Aug 31, 2008 9:14 am)

Replying to: kyfdx (Oct 18, 2008 9:42 am) Yep, it's a '78, IIRC they were all stepsides. There weren't many new performance/muscle cars around in '78 so speed junkies were attracted to this muscle Hemi-truck which could outrun contemporary Corvettes. The article I took it from calls it a "L'il Red Express" but "L'il Red Wagon" is the name I recall too. Hubcap Cafe splits the difference and call s it both.

Replying to: andys120 (Oct 18, 2008 1:26 pm) I remember it as "Little Red Truck," actually. Pretty sure it made its debut as a '78 model. Could be different marketing in different parts of the US. It had a 360 4-barrel (not a Hemi, but as close as you could get in '78) and would keep up with the Chevy C-10 454, not to mention accelerating about as quickly as an L82 Corvette.
