1989 Dodge Dakota Sport 4×4 Convertible Pickup

This 1989 Dodge Dakota Sport 4×4 Convertible Pickup is one of the most unusual and collectible trucks of its era. Dodge offered the convertible Dakota for just three model years, from 1989 to 1991, and built only 3,750 of them in total. Of those, a mere 850 left the factory with four-wheel drive, which makes this truck a genuine rarity among late-’80s collectibles. It pairs open-air fun with true 4×4 capability in a way no other American pickup of its time could match.

The truck has a brand new 3.9L V6 crate engine with zero miles, backed by a 3-year warranty. It is paired with a 4-speed automatic and 4-wheel drive. Factory air conditioning has been refreshed with a new compressor and an R134a conversion, so it blows cold. A new front axle, new front disc brakes, fresh Silver and Grey Dakota Sport stripes, and a good convertible top with a new boot round out the work. Whether you’re building a collection of rare and offbeat classics or you want a conversation piece that stands out at every show, this Dakota Sport is ready to enjoy.
