What a timeless style for this truck all of these years later it still looks amazing. What a beauty. And they’ll run hundreds of thousands of miles. This time period was absolute peak GM. The consistency in paint thickness shows the quality control GM had back then.
The steel was thicker back then , the paint was better back then , taken care of these will run forever if it’s kept out of the salt. Great truck I’m 59 I had one . I’d get the bed spray lined and call it a day. I changed the oil on mine every 3500K miles with Mobil1 . It was running like a top when I sold it at 250K miles.
@@BlackpowderBBQ I live in a salt environment during the winter. It had rust holes but was running just fine when I sold it to a farmer to use on his land as a farm truck. He couldn’t care less about the salt damaged body panels.
This truck really improved with the redesigned dash for 95 and drivers airbag , then in 97’ the dash was redone again to add a passenger airbag…love them I think the 97 and 98 are the best years…really hard to find these not rusted out … 37k miles bet they are asking 35000 for it when it was 27 new back then
In 2001 I bought a 98 Z71 Silverado just like that. Forest green. Mint condition best truck I've ever owned. It's too bad safety requirements don't allow trucks like this to be built anymore.
I own a 1997 Chevy Silverado with 53000 miles never seen snow or rain full power everything leather interior, 3 inch body lift stock wheels, nice aggressive tires burgundy and gold paint with matching fiberglass high end matching color cap. I am the original owner I get tons of people wondering where I found the truck thinking it came out of some barn.
I still have my 99 Dodge Ram I purchased from them 10 years ago. They really do a fantastic job prepping the vehicles....but the mechanical is what it is. Truck had 60k ..now has 175k. Trans went shortly after I purchased...but thats Dodge.
There are bunch of them less miles and garage kept they all over FB groups for sale 20k-50k $ this is a beautiful example of one of them but their definitely not rare in this condition alot of them were collected.
@@justing6594 that is probably what they paid…dealers are scamming people even on used cars… I had this same truck but a 97’ bought used in 2003 with 66k on it for 12700… in theory this awesome used low mileage truck should me maybe 12k….40,000 is way too much. It’s a sle not a slt don’t have leather , don’t have the front bucket seats with console it’s a 3 seater in the front. Yes it’s a z71 trim instead of 4x4 on bed panels… but 40,000 is way too much
