There is a tonneau cover that fits your 1998 Chevy C/K fleetside with a 6-1/2 foot bed that I recommend, from Access, and is the following part number:

- Access TonnoSport Soft, Roll-Up Tonneau Cover # A22020129

I really like the TonnoSport # A22020129 because it is a great value, giving you all the function of other tonneaus at a better price. This is a roll-up cover so it's simple to use, has aluminum rails so they won't rust (meaning they'll last longer than other covers that use steel rails), and the cover sits just 1/2" above your truck bed for a streamlined look.
