Bought another Tahoe

[NCTyphoonKid]

So my fiancés Mitsubishi is starting to act up and I know its going to be a pain in my ass to fix it. I sold my z71 the other day and id been contemplating on buying a newer truck but my fiancés mitsu is continually getting worse it seems and I didn't want her driving my Tahoe so I did some skimming and found this white LT 2001 Tahoe for sale. So I went and checked it out and test drove it got it for 3200 bucks. It has 169000 miles on it has leather interior it has everything but the sunroof. It needs buffing badly the paint should clean up very well but it needs a actual real buff job bad. Its 2wd but that's not really a big deal. Gonna put my cooper discoverer tires and other wheels off my other Tahoe on this one. Will get better pics soon but for now here's these.

If I can find another set of ppv wheels id put them on this Tahoe they look so good on my other one. Idk what to do with this one honestly any input?

wow....not a bad price at 3200. Any more pics of it? I can say that I'm sad to see you sell the GMT400, though

As far as where to go with the white tahoe. Considering it's your Lady's ride keep it very simple because there is a strong likelihood that she'll do something to mess it up at some point I'd start with a demold and debadge first since the paint needs buffing anyway. Get the PPV wheels that you like then maybe a slight 2/4 drop and rock it for a while. Those are just my initial thoughts.

Lol she's actually a really good driver so I'm not worried about it getting messed up or anything. I was sad to sell the Silverado but I will have another. I'll get some more pics today of it.

Busy day after I got off work went to dmv got title sent off and got a tag, disabled the chime(thank god), swapped over to the other wheels and tires I had on my 2000 before putting the ppv wheels on it, fixed rear seatbelt, clean and conditioned seats going to do them again this weekend with something that'll really get into the grain and clean all the dirt and junk out. Washed it too but it'll get a better detail this weekend hopefully. May take the lower valance off and paint it black since its faded out so bad really need to get another and maybe color match the bowtie idk yet. The seat heaters work great and I did clean my white letter tires after these pics lol. I need to get a new third brake light its burnt out, need to get a couple dents fixed and get some new headlights, parking lights and fog lights for it not sure if I'll upgrade the taillights in it yet. Also someone decided to put z71 badges on it there going to be taken off and will prob put the LT badge back

Nice ride! May suggestions: Paint that lower valance black, paint the grille bar white, get an HD hood, PPV wheels, and tint. That'd be a good start at least.

That's what I'm thinking as well prob won't do the hd hood for a while and ppv wheels all depend on if I can find them lol. Anyone have any suggestions on what to use to really get into the grain of the leather to clean it?
