This is a thread to track progress on the resurrection of this worn out old 'hoe. I bought it for the challenge and because I can't stand to see a good Tahoe go to the graveyard. As long as it doesn't blow up my son will be driving it in a couple of months when he turns 16. It's a 2007 2wd LT with 258,000 miles. It had one owner for the first 250,000 miles and I'm sure they took care of it for awhile but stopped giving a rip at some point. I paid $5,000 and felt like that was high by at least $1,000 but I wanted it because 1) 2wd and 2) Bermuda Blue. On the test drive it was missing at idle, the whole dash was lit up and I could feel a bad motor mount and the shocks and struts were obviously worn out. It looked like it had not been washed in a year so I really couldn't see the paint condition. On the plus side, it's not rusty, the interior is fairly clean considering (no smoke, rips or tears and smells like a real Christmas tree). The tires and brakes were passable and it randomly has a sunroof option lol. Plus it's a Tahoe so everything is fixable. I am going to start with some photos, then go on to mechanical issues then clean-up of the interior and exterior.
