1997 Chevrolet Silverado K1500 Z/71 4X4

Description

This 1997 Chevrolet Silverado 4x4 is exactly what you've been looking for. After all, it's a fuel-injected V8 short bed four-wheel-drive classic truck that's loaded with features and even has the desirable Z71 suspension. So what more could you want? A value price? It has that, too.

The bold red paint shows all the right signs of being the original application, and the good gloss it has today signals a life of good care. Plus, straight panels and good chrome make for a stylish Silverado. There are even nice details like a full-length pinstripe and 16-inch wheels borrowed from a later Silverado. The bed has the right mix of good-looking metal, but nothing too perfect that will stop you from tossing your camping gear in the back. When it comes time to tackle the messy jobs you can save your truck by attaching a trailer to the tow hitch.

This truck has averaged less than 3,600 miles annually, and that's far less than many of its peers. This less use combined with good care is especially seen inside. The upholstery, carpeting, headliner, and dash all have a clean and inviting feeling. And all that marron looks stylish against the exterior red. The seating has the ideal mix where you can seat three across, but whenever you want more individualized space, the just seat folds down to be the console to your two bucket seats. The full package is full of comfort with features like power windows, power locks, keyless entry, cruise control, a tilt steering column, an AM/FM/cassette stereo w/CD player, dual airbags, and cold-blowing air conditioning.

Under the hood is the correct 5.7-liter V8. This combines the Chevy small block's long-standing hardy reputation now with modern fuel injection. This Chevy is a modern classic, and so you get other versatile features, like the push-button 4x4 system and a fully independent front suspension (something that was not available in its 4x4 predecessors.) It makes for a good driver in all conditions. That feeling is reinforced by power steering, power brakes, front discs, and a four-speed automatic transmission w/overdrive.

Complete with owner's manual, this is a sleek, loaded, and respected 4x4. So it's time to grab a great modern classic for a great price. Call now!
