I bought a really well kept 94 Yukon a week ago and have some plans for it.
Here she is.

20140219_100305_zps72c59c4d.jpg

It has ZERO rust, Just a few dings / dents and some chips.
I'm taking off all the body side and wheel opening moldings.
Replacing the chrome bumpers with painted ones with out the bumper strips.
Tossing the steps and emblems... Painting the door handles to match the truck.
Replacing the front lights with newer style ones and tinting the back lights.

That's what I'm figuring so far... I should have the whole truck repainted and ready to roll by next sunday. :pepper:

I'll post pics as it progresses... Got my bumpers and lights today so it should go pretty quick when I have time to work on it...

O also gonna paint the mirrors to match and paint the wheels gloss black I think...

Looking forward to seeing your progress. My Suburban is the same color and also in good shape body wise. Maybe you'll inspire me to clean it up more

Well it took a little longer then I expected but it's back on the road now.
I fixed every chip, scratch and dent last weekend and repainted it.

I'm still gonna paint the wheels gloss black and install a big stereo after I get all the parts in the next couple weeks.

So I deleted all the chrome, emblems, moldings and running boards...
I bought aftermarket paintable bumpers (Welded up the licence plate holes in the front one.
Painted the mirrors, handles and bumpers to match.
Painted the emblem in the front black and deleted the chrome grill and tinted the lights...

Thanks!

After the cosmetic stuff is all finished it's going to get a Turbo 5.3 LSX swap if I can find the spare time this summer.
