1987 Chevrolet Silverado

“Best in the world!” “Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!” We hear it and read it all the time in the classic car world, and sadly, it's usually just another catchy advertising ploy. But not this time. This is the “Creme de La Creme” of Chevy square-body trucks–and from the final production year! The Silverado was not yet its own model in '87, but rather the apex of trim levels available on the C-body trucks. This shortbed truck was purchased new at Zentz Chevy-Buick in Gettysburg, PA. by a Mr. Gerald E. Miller on August 19th, 1987. Several years later, Mr. Miller contacted his local dealership to sell his coveted Silverado, which had never seen a raindrop, and had traveled less than 200 miles since new! The story goes that when the dealer representative came to retrieve the vehicle from Mr. Miller's garage, it was raining, and Mr. Miller informed the gentleman that he would not be taking the truck with him that day. Once the weather cleared up, the dealership retrieved the vehicle, and since that time, it has resided in a private dealers collection here on the East Coast of the Carolinas. This Silverado pickup is an RPO-M-G! It features the 5.7 L V8 fuel-injected engine and a 4-speed automatic transmission with Overdrive. It has power steering, power brakes, power windows, power door locks, air conditioning, tilt steering wheel, cruise control, and AM/FM stereo radio. It also features the chrome rear bumper, chrome front bumper guards, Glide-out spare tire carrier, instrument gauge package, color-keyed floor mats, cargo light, dome light, cigarette lighter, stainless-steel side mirrors, aluminum/faux-wood bed rails, and all the brightwork molding add-ons (including the wheel openings, front marker lights, tail lights, door-edge guards, window trim, and body side molding). The truck is still fit with its original Firestone Destination LE2 white-letter tires and the factory polished aluminum wheels. There are a myriad of factory markings still applied to the undercarriage as well as in the engine compartment. Additionally, on the interior you will find the original plastic cover over the bench seat as well as the factory protective clear plastic door panel coverings. This truck is truly still “In the wrapper” from 1987! As close to perfect that you could ever hope to find! The original dealer invoice, owner's manual, and accompanying paperwork are included with the sale.
