This is my first ever build thread so excuse the loss of pictures. I didnt think to take any during the process. Shes a 97 Tahoe 4 door which was bone stock when i purchased it in 2010 and now its still pretty stock. 250,000 miles but with strict routine maintenance. I am the 2nd owner my grandma bought it brand new and sold it to me for the price of a power steering hose which is why she stopped driving it.

My Plan:
Color Match the interior and exterior
6in RCX Lift Kit with 35s
Full led upgrades and Hid upgrades
Debadge
Nbs center console and overhead console
Rebuild motor or find a 5.7 vortec with way less miles
Complete competition audio system
New headlights and taillights​

This is what it looked like when i just got it.
