Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
Thanks I'm going to get more pictures of it with the new lights and radio. 2wd Tahoe's are hard to find whare I'm from. Got plenty of 2 doors running around so I think that's an even trade. Haha

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
Theres not many around here either, 2 door or 4 door. I got this one 5 hours one way, but is from Texas and ZERO rust. I missed out on one earlier this year, was from Florida, it sold, then saw it bout a month ago for sale again, with bad motor. $500. Mine is still cleaner lol....

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
I've yet to see a clean tahoe. With no rust. They are all rusty. This one had rust to but that's why I bought it. I can drive it in the winter and keep my rust free 07 classic rust free haha.

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
Both of mine are rust free. I bought the Yukon cheap, even tho it needed motor/tranny. But I paid 1200 for it, and included the whipple supercharger. Plus was lifted, most of what's done is what I would want on it if I was to build it. Next step is an SAS, the IFS wanders all over the road. I'm in the rust belt, and seen alot that were rot boxes, and STILL want way too much for em. But I want to drive this in the winter over my Tundra, it's my late fathers and has rust already. Any other vehicle can be replaced, not this one.

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
Went with stock stile headlights and tails. No pic of tails. I dont like the ricer lights. Stock always looks better to me when it comes to lights. Also hate aftermarket radio's. Manly because they are so ugly. And it's just asking for someone to steal it.

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
I have that radio in my truck. The Sony, not the crappy stock one.

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
To each there own. The Sony did not work even turn on so the stock one is better in this situation.

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
Thanks for the responses fellas. I can see the humor now that I know what was intended. But initially, it looked like you were insulting 71s choice and laughing about it. His response certainly reads like he was defending his choice.
Sean, you might want to consider, that instead of questioning my ability to appreciate humor, that maybe your attempt wasn't received as such, through no fault of my own. Emojis can be interpreted differently, but the words were pretty blunt. There was a chance to say something that was actually funny, no emoji, because it's pretty ironic that he took out the stereo you used to replace the stock one, so that he could put the stock on back in.

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
I was not offended at all. So all is forgiving. Now let's move on shall we.

I doubt that 71 GMC C15 is going to stop posting, just because of this, haha. But it's easy to see the forum traffic diminishing on a monthly basis and this certainly doesn't encourage somebody to show us what they're working on. Last edited by LT7A; 12-09-2020 at 05:02 PM. |

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
Both of mine have aftermarket in them. One song one pioneer. Neither worked lol. Well the pioneer does but don’t like it. Stock ones ain’t bad, but no RCA’s to add n amp, and sound is limited. I have a kenwood in my Yukon, with cheapo Walmart speakers n sub box from my old car sounds absolutely amazing. Think the radio was $60-70 n $100 on 6 speakers n 4 tweeters. The pioneer has a back up camera, gotta figure that out, be nice to have. PO did some weird **** to this lol....

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
W/T grill looks good!! I haven’t done anything to mine, need a motor for the Yukon, buddy has a low mileage one for decent price. The Tahoe still going good, put Escalade gauge cluster n center console. Pics for the hell of it. Black is actually a Yukon

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
They are alot nicer than the stock ones. i tried to wire up the factory amp/sub, but not sure I did right, but could barely hear. I said screw it and put a box in the back. I found a local yard that has two of em...$50 each i think. Might get em just to hang on to.

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
Very cool! Please continue to update if you can. I've been looking for a 99-04 Tahoe but everything is ragged out here in Missouri. Seems like teenagers are drawn to these because they all look like some kid that didn't care owned them at some point in my area. lol

Re: New to me 99 tahoe classic
I decided I did not like the beam pattern of my Amazon headlights. The low beam was pretty good but thate was no difference between the low and high beside when hi beam was on it would put more light directly in front of you. You know the opposite of what a hi beam should do. Other then them looking pritty good I decided to go with the vision x h4 conversion bulbs paired with vison x hi power 80/100 h4 incandescent bulbs. Something that just works. Got tried of leds and there garbage beam patterns.
