Here ya go...

Just under 172K miles on her and just barely broken in!

The only thing wrong with it at the time, according to the owner, was that the A/C needed to be recharged. The owner also told me that this truck was ordered with pretty much every option except the G80 locker (It had 3.42 gears, but without the 4WD engaged, it was was doing the one-tire fire).

Here's another gem as far 2-door Tahoes are concerned...

It is a 1995 Chevy Tahoe base 4x4, owned by a guy who went to the same college with (I didn't know him very well; We were just a couple of truck enthusiasts who chatted from time to time; He sold the Tahoe and bought an older S-10 in the interest of getting better gas mileage).

This beast was special ordered new in North Carolina and spent most of it's life there. I believe the guy from college bought it from the original owner. This Tahoe was ordered with only two options, air-conditioning and a G80 locking rear. Yes, even in 1995, A/C was an extra-cost option on a Tahoe (pretty sure it was standard on 4-door models).

All of these photos were taken in the student parking lot of my college, in Newtown, PA.

At some point over the winter, he replaced the base grille with a dual-quad grille from an early 1990s Chevy Silverado 1500...

This is what you do when you can't find a parking space, but you're running late for class!

'71 or '71? I know in one of those years they only made twelve Hemi 'Cuda convertibles...

 

that one is a 1970, 1971 has quad headlights and gills on the fenders.

 

My uncle lives in Myrtle Beach and his friend who owns a car museum owns one of the 12 Hemi 'Cuda convertibles!

 

Reminds me of a Jeep that comes up to Owl's Head a couple of times a year. It's a Wagoneer with the 360, power everything, and a stick. Only one I've ever seen that wasn't an automatic. I'll see if I can find pictures.

 

Found them.


The power rear window even still works.

 

That can't be factory...

What year is it?

 

I don't remember off the top of my head; '79 or '80 I think.

Edit- But, a 4 speed manual WAS an option with the Waggy's, I just don't think very many people opted for it. "Why spend all that $$ on a luxury SUV just to row your own gears?"

 

Did it have A/C?

 

I don't remember, to be honest. I don't think so?

 

But it had power everything? Maybe it had A/C at one time...

I saw a 1993 S-10 regular cab pickup once, with Tahoe trim, that had the 4.3L V6, automatic, cruise, tilt, and stereo cassette, but no A/C...

 

Power everything?!?! LOL, I see crank windows!

Definitely DOES NOT have air-conditioning!

 

Yeah, power windows and locks, power rear window (the tailgate window)

But actually, now that I think about it it may have had the 258 I6 and not the 360; it was a couple of years ago that I looked under the hood and there were two Wagoneers that day. The one with the 360 was the power everything model; the one with the stick had crank windows.

 

I see rollup windows...

Gorgeous truck though!
