GMT400 Tahoe Z71

[Dariusz Salomon]

Nice! The paint looks to be in excellent condition. I've never been to the UK, but I certainly would not expect to find a Z71 tahoe there. Surely those are uncommon there too?

Very-I don't think there is another one in the UK, maybe even in Europe( tho that I can't be sure of)-paint is original. 108000 miles truck now-had it around 4 years.

Btw-you wouldn't happen to know how many z71s were built?

I've never been able to find a reputable figure. I emailed GM years ago asking and they were not able to give me any numbers. Somewhere in some ancient paperwork has production numbers, hopefully they will be uncovered/revealed soon.

At KFC in Cornwall-what are the chances of 2 Chevy trucks in pretty much the same color at one car park in the UK lol

That Blazer next to your Tahoe is RHD? Did GM sell Blazers to the UK back in the day? Or does UK law require imports to be converted to RHD?

No conversion required. Blazers were sold in Australia I think and they require RHD-it's prolly import from over there. And fun fact-Holden Suburban used Blazer's dash because of this requirement.

Wow! Never knew Blazers were sold in Australia! IIRC yes Australian law requires imports to be RHD. I did know that Holden Suburbans use an extended Blazer dash. I thought it was so weird until I found out about Australian law and the it made sense.

I might have been wrong on this one-they were in Japan tho-hence RHD.

Those Blazers are really common in NZ as well, in RHD, according to Wikipedia the RHDs were assembled in Indonesia for export.

I have a ‘97 2door Tahoe LT with the Z71 package. Very similar options minus the fog lights, steps and color matching grill which were not part of the package in ‘97. I am the original owner and I have 110k original miles. All stock with a full repaint a few years ago when I managed a body shop. Never been hit, zero rust, SoCal car.
