This 1978 Dodge Power Wagon is a Club Cab model finished in two-tone red over a red interior and powered by a replacement 440ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission and dual-range transfer case with a locking center differential. Additional equipment includes 15″ body-colored wheels, front disc brakes, chrome bumpers, towing mirrors, a sunroof, and a Pioneer stereo wired to a Rockford Fosgate amplifier and speakers.
The truck is finished in two-tone red and was repainted before the seller’s acquisition in 2020. The bumpers were rechromed at that time, and additional equipment includes polished trim, towing mirrors, a sunroof, Power Wagon and 440 badging, and a single exhaust exiting behind the right rear tire. The seller states the windshield and back window were replaced along with the weather seals.
Body-colored 15″ steel wheels wear chrome center caps and are wrapped in Cooper Discoverer AT3 tires. Stopping power is provided by front discs and rear drums, and the truck rides on Monroe shocks. The seller notes the front wheel bearings and brake rotors were replaced as part of the refurbishment.
The interior features bench seating upholstered in red cloth and vinyl and is complemented by a matching dashboard, door panels, and carpets. Woodgrain trim accents the door panels and dashboard, and additional equipment includes air conditioning, vent windows, and a glovebox. Work completed as part of the refurbishment includes reupholstering the seats, redying the door panels, replacing the carpets, and installing a Pioneer stereo and a Rockford Fosgate amplifier and speakers.
The two-spoke steering wheel is mounted to a tilting column and fronts a 100-mph speedometer, an analog clock, an oil pressure warning light, and auxiliary gauges indicating battery voltage, fuel level, and coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer indicates under 50k miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 440ci V8 was reportedly installed under prior ownership. Engine work completed as part of the refurbishment reportedly includes rebuilding and recharging the air conditioning system along with replacing the timing chain, water pump, fuel pump, radiator hoses, and serpentine belts.
Power is sent to all four wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case with a locking center differential. The transmission and rear axle were reportedly serviced as part of the refurbishment.
