1997 Chevrolet K1500

Gateway Classic Cars of San Antonio/Austin is proud to present this 1-owner 1997 Chevrolet K1500 Z/71. It is not every day you see a vehicle that makes you stop and stare, but this truck does just that! From the 6.5" Dick Cepek lift to the TireGate spare tire carrier with a full-size spare, this Z/71 keeps you looking at every angle. The factory black and silver two tone paint makes you question if it has ever been driven. This beast was built for off-road with upgrades such as the Skyjacker 6" rear leaf spring kit, extended stainless steel braided brake lines, 4.56 Precision gears in the front and back, with an Auburn PosiTrac unit out back, ORU extra capacity aluminum differential cover, custom DOM rear control arms and the Smittybilt tube steps make this truck stand apart from the regular crowd. And the 16" Mickey Thompson Classic II wheels wrapped in 315/75s really add to the aggressive look. Under the hood is the tried and true 5.7L Vortec V8 that breathes in through a Volant Cold air intake and out through a 3" Flowmaster American Thunder exhaust. Other notable upgrades to the engine are the MSD Blaster ignition coil and 8.5mm wires, Hypertech programmer III, Hypertech 160degree thermostat. A push-button 4wheel drive and automatic transmission make this truck almost effortless to drive. The cab features a split-bench seat upholstered in gray cloth along with matching carpets, door panels and dashboard. Amenities include a fold-down center console, pop-out cupholders, air conditioning, an AM/FM/CD cassette stereo with new JBL GTO626 speakers, cruise control, power windows and locks, and a power-adjustable driver's seat that have all been preserved with Lloyd's floor mats and CoverCraft canvas seat-covers. The leather-wrapped four-spoke steering wheel is mounted on a tilting column and frames a 100-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and auxiliary gauges. This 4x4 has been babied since day 1, and it shows. This Z/71 has seen less than 14k Carfax reported miles. If you are looking for a true time capsule of a truck, this is the one you don't want to miss out on.
