A few things we love, rare options and configurations. This 1978 Dodge Magnum GT seemingly has it all, which is to say it has a T-top roof option along with the 400 cubic inch V8, automatic transmission and silver-on-black color scheme.
The big body coupe hails from an interesting time when personal luxury coupes were a must-have in any domestic lineup along with welcoming any associations with NASCAR it could muster. The Magnum achieved both of these requirements, offering a spacious interior wrapped in a muscular shell, while also providing a more aerodynamic shape to make it a worthwhile entry into NASCAR where wind resistance was a major consideration. This Magnum edges closer to the sportier side of the equation thanks to its optional T-top roof and “GT” package – short for Gran Torino – added fender flares, 15 inch tires with 7-inch-wide Magnum Road wheels, “Firm-Feel Steering,” heavy-duty suspension and special stripes. Factory am/fm /cb radio. Cruise control (non-working). All of these details appear to still be present, along with nicely preserved chrome bumpers and appears to be older repainted Silver metallic paint. Bucket seat interior appears to be all original and Odometer shows 83,xxx believed actual miles. The small opera windows behind the front side glass gave rear passengers a window on the world, while the T-top roof obviously let plenty of light in for everyone else. Just 861 GT-spec cars were produced in 1978. To me, this is a dirt-cheap entry into owning one of the rarer Mopars made and in the sort of condition that very few Magnums remain in today.
