I have a lot of questions, but I won't ask them all in this Thread.
I have a 99 Tahoe, 54k miles, it hit a telephone pole, the telephone pole broke in half hit the roof just above the windshield. The other part came down and hit the roof by the rear side window. So the windshield and the left rear side windows are broken
It was running and driving after the bumper was pulled out, but has not been started in about five years.
Right now, I am not sure exactly which section to post questions in.

Well !! my questions include pictures. I need to post, but apparently I can't post pictures yet, so I just say hello.

EDIT: Well I guess I can.

Do ya think I can bump the roof out and put a new windshield in ??

Next question
Would the ground wire with the red circle, cause the fuel pump to not function,if not hooked up ? Right now inner fender is removed.
The wire with the yellow circle I believe goes to the lights

A lot of work ahead of you. GL keep up posted. You going to do the body work yourself?

Why not just find a truck on Craigslist and swap the body over? It looks like that truck has a salvage title. If you look around you will find something with a million miles on it for fairly cheap, clean title, and you will probably have to do half the body work to it. You could swap your interior into the new body as well. That looks like its going to leak unless you get some patch panels.
