Actually a WHITE Shelby Dakota is the rarest... I
forgot the white vs. red numbers, but it was more red than
white.
Even more rare would be the prototype '86 Dakotas....
They are much different inside than the '87 & '88's... I saw
one on television one time..
BTW:
I collect diecast 1/24 scale trucks...and I am looking
for Dakota 1/24 scale (or ANY scale) Dakota promo models...
It seems that the 'Ram' got more attention in that area than
any Dakota...
Thanks,
