Regular Cab - 5.7L V8 - 79,942 Original Miles, Factory Z71 Off Road
Package - Garage-Kept - Never Winter Driven Original Paint -
Ziebart Rust Proofed - Clean Carfax
This 1998 Chevrolet Silverado K1500 Z71 is a true preservation
truck that has been carefully maintained throughout its life. With
only 79,942 original miles, the factory Z71 Off Road Package,
original paint, and Ziebart rust proofing applied from new, this is
one of the cleanest OBS Z71 Silverado's available on the market
today.

Why This Truck Stands Out:
The 1998 Z71 Silverado represents the best year of the OBS era -
the final year before the GMT800 redesign, with the most refined
Vortec drivetrain and the desirable Z71 Off Road Package.
Documented preservation Z71s are increasingly rare in any
configuration. This truck has been protected from day one - Ziebart
rust proofed, garage stored, never driven in winter, seats covered
since new, and meticulously maintained throughout its life. The
factory Z71 Off Road Package commands a premium in the OBS
collector market, and finding one with original paint, documented
low miles, no rust, and complete preservation history is
increasingly difficult. The original paint has never seen weather
damage, the undercarriage has never seen road salt, and the
interior shows the kind of condition you simply cannot find on
trucks that were used as daily drivers. For the buyer searching for
an honest, documented, factory-original 1998 Z71 that's ready to
enjoy without any sorting needs, this is the truck.
