Lay underneath the Tahoe.... get a real GOOD flashlight..... Take your time and inspect it for rust and all the other stuff ...... If your view with your flashlight, makes you worry, than run away. Then look around the engine bay....Hello I am in the process of looking for a car and found one that looks good and has had alot of work done to it. My question is should i see that as a good thing or bad thing. Below is all the things that have been done. The car has about 100k and is a 2003. Just curious if its something i should consider or move on. Thanks in advance
Things that have been done.
Radiator replaced and clean coolant
New air filter
New crank sensor
All new spark plugs and wires
New rotor cap
Fresh oil and filter
Oil pan gasket replaced
Fresh transmission fluid and filter
Transmission oil pan gasket replaced
also mentioned one issue
After the crank sensor was replaced mechanic showed it taking an extra crank on cold start, believed to be the fuel draining back into the tank slowly by the
check valve

In Arizona.... The areas, near Hwy 93 & hwy 68. ( just NW of I-40.... ( an hour & a half, south, from Hoover Damn ) This area is a GOLD MINE, for '60's, '70's muscle cars, for restoring...must suck, I can show you 30-40 year old vehicles in the junkyards here, no rust. they have to be pretty ratty to be rusted, like no paint. etc
why more people don't buy them here and just drive them back or have them delivered is beyond me.
What state is this in? I'm in Colorado and am looking at a 04 Yukon with 273,000 for $3900.Price is 3800 it has rocker panel rust but frame is solid. I also i guess my question is more of a survey lol. From what i am getting from the responses its worth a look
