Hey all - new to the site.
I have had gm products all my driving career 88Camaro/91Blazer/86Blazer/94Sierra/96Tahoe, except for (1) 1988 Ford T-bird that got the living shit beat out of it literally (My friend drove it into a stone wall) and while it was on the jack some ****** came by and smashed my passenger window and clawed my radio out. Luckily my friends $1500 worth of PS2 stuff was left alone.
My most recent aquisition is my 1996 Chevy Tahoe LT. Saw it on craigslist for $1750 went and took a look at it, and a week later it was mine for $1000. 2 years ago the previous owner put in a Jasper Reman Motor w/ updated Vortec Heads(currently at 45k) purrs like a kitten and I have receipts for the last 5years that totals well over 7500 of work done at the same shop including a rear end replaced/rebuilt tranny/misc. maintenance parts. So should be smooth sailing for quite a while...
Figured at that price how could you go wrong. Bought it winter 09 have been messing around with it ever since. So far have done LED tails, grille guard, tail guards, de-badged/molded. painted rear bumper, slight stereo upgrade (head unit and speakers) Painted Grille, new clear headlights/corners.
Still a work in progress - would eventually love to do 6" lift w/ 35s and black wheels.
First 2 pics are from when I first got it, and last 2 are a bit dated will upload some newer ones shortly when my camera decides to work again.
Feel free to drop suggestions/opinions/likes/dislikes.
