Picked up a 98 SS!!!!
« on: September 15, 2015, 03:02:33 PM »
From my research it appears that I am now the proud owner of 1 of the 1,324 SS S10's made in 1998!  It's in overall great condition for being a 17 year old truck, just turned over 157,000 miles.  It has some issues here and there but I plan to tackle them one at a time and bring it back to it's former glory.   I've attached the Craigslist picture, just got it this morning so I haven't had time to clean it up and take my own pictures.

Those are even the correct, likely original wheels. That itself is unusual.

Yeah, looks like the truck was mostly kept stock. The exhaust and stereo have been changed but otherwise it seems original.

Thanks, it has some scratches and dings but overall not bad for a 17 year old truck

Nice!

Thanks guys, I'm pretty stoked to have such a cool ride as my daily.  I'll be posting "finished" pictures of my 93 soon in my other build thread.  It's painted and mostly put back together now.  Should be on the road in a matter of weeks.

Got a quick picture of the truck the other day.  It still needs a full detail and polish but this was after I ran it through the touchless to at least get some of the grime off of it.
