At that price you saved enough to LS swap it...

Great truck. Mine is the same color.

Thanks. You have pics of yours? I’m always looking for other blue 2 doors to kinda see what the potential of mine is. As far as the LS swap goes, I have definitely thought about it. But I’m currently working on putting a 6.0 in my 66 Biscayne. Would be awesome to do it in the future to the Tahoe though.

Real nice Cameron! Watch those tires though. Plenty of tread but they are dry rotted.

I reckon LMC Truck will be on your short list soon for parts!

Yeah I saw the tires. The previous owner put new tires on it a few years ago and just never really drove it. The tread is pretty much as it was when they were new. I’m looking at wheel and tire options now. Thanks for making sure I was aware of them though.

I had a 2 door 2wd. I loved it. I got rid of it for a few reasons, but a large one was because the rear quarter windows leaked and I couldn't find anyplace that was willing to take them out to redo them. I finally found a guy and he handled one, but wouldn't do the other one. Apparently they don't make the quarter window glass anymore, so if it gets broken it's nearly impossible to track down. Between the leaking and stressing about rocks or just random punk kids breaking my windows, I couldn't drive it daily anymore without being stressed about it. Someone offered me a pretty good amount of cash for it, so I sold it. Here's pics:

Just out of curiosity, i called our local glass installer and asked for a Lt rear side glass with privacy tint for a 99' 2 door Tahoe. He looked it up and said his distributor has one in stock. Apparently they can still be had.

That’s a nice Tahoe you had. I’m curious about the rear window glass also. I was thinking of going to a local glass company and asking if they’d replace the seal for me and go from there. Then say a prayer no glass was broken in the process. Lol

That ride was sweet. Too bad you had to sell it.

where do you see that it is for 4 door only?
I see now where it says that. I would be interested to call them and ask what that's all about.

Yeah, I'm sure it's a mistake that they show the 2 door picture, but it's a pretty misleading mistake

Thanks! It got stressful knowing the book value was like $1500 for it if I had an accident, and the leaky glass was kind of a bummer too. I love cool cars, but I'm big on daily driving them so this one had to go. Maybe the glass people in your area are way more resourceful than I could find here, and it wouldn't be as big of a deal

Thanks man. After this I took over my 05 Denali from the wife and I love that car. I am getting the itch to start modifying it, though.
