The Project begins: My first Hoe

[jmlea0]

Well guys I have had many obs trucks and nbs trucks and a duramax but never had a tahoe. Here it is! This Hoe was owned by a one owner who I have known since he bought this new. Very well taken care of and 44k original miles.

1999 chevy tahoe 4x4
-44k original
-no body rot
-Whipple supercharger
-stainless headers
-custom exhaust, no cats
-k&n
-whelen strobes front and rear
-gm 20" denali replica wheels that have seen better days
-cowl hood
-absolutly perfect leather interior

What I have already done:
-repainted hood and painted chrome grille black
-debaged
-powdercoated bumpers black
-undercarriage clean and paint
-maintenance, shocks, brakes etc.


Where should I take it next???!!

-Lift it

-lower rear and powdercoat denali 20's

-bigger wheels



Need some advice guys and also pics of rigs that are similar with ideas. Thanks again!

I would say smooth front bumper and lift it.

 

[fiatdale]

It looks kickass! I'd drop it. It's got such a clean body, keep it close to the ground.

I agree with both. Smooth front bumper it. Clear corners. Remove rear bumper and put Rollpan possible dual exhaust and drop it on ck375 wheels. Chrome or black.

Looks much better bumpers and grill painted. I agree with 08grey.

 

[JesusArTorres]

Looks great!

Did you paint the bumper yourself?

If you decide to lift it, here is my old one

6.5" Dick Cepek lift
1 ton torsion bars, 8" skyjacker springs
35x14.50 Mud Grapplers on 15x10's

Lower it for sure maybe some factory 22's painted or dipped black. Smoked lens all around.
