December 16, 200916 yr Is this a pair of 'barn-door' Suburbans, or actual wooden barn doors? If the latter, what's the plan?
December 16, 200916 yr Cool... I saw a 2dr Yukon in traffic yesterday, haven't seen one of those in a while. Didn't have barn doors. Was a 2 tone gold and bronze.
December 16, 200916 yr Hah - I knew exactly where you were going with the title when I saw it. Congratulations! Can't wait to see the pics.
December 16, 200916 yr Author Thanks guys, I'll try to get pics today or tomorrow. WK: I have leads on Mothertruck and the wagon, but no results yet.
December 16, 200916 yr Congrats! One of the best SUV's ever...I love my uncles Tahoe 2-door. Silver and blue...can't wait to see pics
December 16, 200916 yr WK: I have leads on Mothertruck and the wagon, but no results yet. That's exactly how it's going with selling the Buick, a bunch of leads and no results. I would say Christmas is the biggest reason as to why no one is buying.
December 16, 200916 yr Author Pics will have to wait - I need to replace my rechargeable batteries. Now I have to run out and get some kerosene so it isn't too cold to get some work done on this thing tonight. Shooting for inspection tomorrow.
December 17, 200916 yr Pics will have to wait - I need to replace my rechargeable batteries. Now I have to run out and get some kerosene so it isn't too cold to get some work done on this thing tonight. Shooting for inspection tomorrow. Do you live in "volcano age" - the time when lava was free flowing on the earth?
December 17, 200916 yr Author Things didn't go exactly as planned. I took the ROPOS to pick-up a few things at Pep Boys for the Tahoe because I didn't want to carry the kero inside the Tahoe. So I make my rounds and head toward the station that has the Kero, just then the serpentine belt on the ROPOS lets go - so I skip the kero and go home. I do a few things on the Tahoe and back it out of the barn. I go to pull the ROPOS into the barn and the shredded belt takes out the high pressure power steering hose! What a mess. Made another run to "the Boys" and picked-up a new hose and PS fluid. I'm done for tonight. Seems my black cloud hasn't quite left me yet. Edited December 17, 200916 yr by Camino LS6
December 18, 200916 yr Author Finished my emergency repair on the ROPOS a little while ago. Meanwhile the Tahoe is being checked out for inspection at the Chevy shop. I expect to be doing rotors and calipers on it. I'll be doing the work once I have the list. I took a pic today, but left my camera at the race car shop (got some Healey pics). Should be able to give you guys a look sometime tomorrow.
December 18, 200916 yr I know what you mean about a black cloud...was fixing a refrigeration issue at a resteraunt this ayem...wanting a cup of coffee...just as I got done the commercial coffemaker there had an electrical fire, 86ing the idea of a cup of coffee. Sometimes... And thanks for the Healy pics...
December 18, 200916 yr Author No rust, minor issues. The upcoming snow has delayed getting them dealt with - had more drama with the plowbeast today...
December 19, 200916 yr Whoa, I would guess that's exactly the truck you've wanted for a while now. Looks good.
December 19, 200916 yr Author Thanks guys, I like it. It needs some TLC, but I'll be getting right on that after this monster storm goes by. I'll be using the 4x4 capability of this and the ROPOS today.
December 19, 200916 yr Nice FWD wagon you have there with AWD capability? Will it do mud wrestling? Congrats.
December 19, 200916 yr Author Well, today it wants to be RWD-only for some reason - the 4 wheel drive doesn't want to engage. It worked when I checked it out before buying it! Oh well, I figure that out later after the storm.
December 19, 200916 yr Author Haven't had time to look yet, but the tires are not so great so it wouldn't matter much. I suppose I could get by if I put some weight in the back, but I'll just use the Ropos for now. I was a bit disappointed, but it will be dealt with soon.
December 22, 200916 yr Wow, Camino ... CONGRATULATIONS! Sure looks to be a cool Tahoe ... enjoy it.

December 30, 200916 yr Congrats on the Tahoe. What year is it (I may have missed that in a previous post)?? Now you've had two 2-door SUVs, I got some catching up to do!! I may have to resume my 2-door Yukon online search, gave up on that after buying the Cadillac in August. Here's hoping all goes well with the minor repairs it needs.
December 30, 200916 yr Author Thanks, Roger. It's a '95, and the initial round of repairs has been completed. Picked up the spare tire, bracket, and cover the idiot previous owner took out so he could fit in a huge subwoofer box today. Installed them this afternoon. Much of the other stuff I did is in the Winter tire thread, if you're interested.
December 31, 200916 yr You mean your not going to drive this playing rap music with your pants hanging off of your ass? Lower it and add neon? Fo sho you could keep the subwoofer box... Edited December 31, 200916 yr by 66Stang
December 31, 200916 yr You mean your not going to drive this playing rap music with your pants hanging off of your ass? Lower it and add neon? Fo sho you could keep the subwoofer box... Definitely...and get some chrome 24s and put on it, and eventually paint it kermit the frog green.
December 31, 200916 yr Lambo doors...it needs lambo doors... Seriously, glad your getting the thing buttoned down, sir. Chris
December 31, 200916 yr You guys forgot the four clocks it will need to be customized in the dashboard yo. Tag Heuer Omega Rolex Diamond and more Rolex Sapphire
December 31, 200916 yr Author Trust me, it will be fully de-hip hopped. I have been sourcing parts from a near-exact clone that was a C4C vehicle. I'm not done raiding.
December 31, 200916 yr At least one good thing came out of C4C then... But dem hip hop boyz like dem girls with dem big ass butz...you might want to find yourself a bench seat, Camino.
December 31, 200916 yr You guys forgot the four clocks it will need to be customized in the dashboard yo. Tag Heuer Omega Rolex Diamond and more Rolex Sapphire Will you be able to see them through the gold chains hanging from the rear view mirror? Chris
