Warlock dash question.

Warlock dash question. - 08/17/19 10:08 PM

I'm looking at a 1979 Dodge Warlock and the dash bezel is black with gold spider web design on it. All the warlocks I've seen have pin striping on the bezel. Is this spider web design normal for a 1979 warlock. The truck is black with gold pin stripes on the exterior and on the inside of the doors.

No spiderwebing. They all have pinstripineing in the dash to match what's on the outside of the truck.

That's not correct, along with the other gauges of course.. I'm not sure a 1979 would have had a Tuff wheel either.

My 79 Warlock II had an unusual dash too, and a tough wheel. I bought it in 1996 and sold it to a friend in the mid 2000's and he still has it. A lot of things changed for the 79 model... twocents

Not sure of it originality to the truck, but it looks pretty cool and kinda fits the theme of the Warlock...

Had a 4x4 79 Warlock II back in 1984, and it did have a tuff wheel, pinstriped bezel, not that wild spider web deal. Additionally was a black truck with red bench seat interior.

I don't remember warlocks ever having power wagon emblems? That seems more like a non warlock with the pinstriping.

I've never seen a "power wagon" Warlock either, but I'm not an expert! Looks like plenty of items on that truck have been fiddled with.

Bezel has been "customized" should be black with gold pinstripe like on doors/body. Is this truck in Pa?

Obviously a lot of time has passed since '79.
Your lucky it's in the condition it's in.
Nice truck by the way. up

Cool. It moved around Pa a couple times. Looks like decent truck that just needed right fender, grille, and bumper replaced. Good luck with it and post progress pics!!

Asked about this on the LRE/Warlock forum and was told '79's did have this dash as an option.

Here's the best pic. I have of the dash on my '79 Warlock II Power Wagon before restoration...shows the same spider webbing which is just part of the aging of the paint on plastic.
