Well after the tragic loss of my stepside i saved up some cash and picked up a new ride. its a 93 yukon lifted 6 inches, seems to be 35's but they look small. new trans, newer engine, all new headers/exhaust and came with an extra tcase. needs windsheild small fuel return line portion, brakes need to be bled and needs a ton of cosmetics. the body is rather roughbut its decent for a michigan vehicle with 200k on the body. overall im loving the truck but needs alot of work especially interior. carpet and panel dye is just plain nasty, dont even know how the stuff comes off. if anyone knows give me a shout, i wasnt it off! heres a few pics to tide you animals over.

I would PM sewlow about the dye, he would probably know.
Looks like you have some rust work to do, but I really like how that could look all cleaned up. What are the plans for it? Is it something you're thinking about trying to restore, or is it too far gone? Either way, looks like something you will definitely enjoy.

That looks like it'll make a nice project truck.

As far as the interior pieces, I would spray some heavy duty cleaner on them (Make sure it's not something that will break down the plastic) and take them to a pressure washer. (A car was will work for that.)

Then get yourself some SEM interior dye and respray the interior. It would be neat to make the interior black with the dye while you were at it.

Looks like the fender flares were not too kind to the wells, but a bit of bodywork and it should be a pretty nice truck. Really like the paint job reminds me of my dad's 84 K5

Very nice! I too am curious as to what happened to the 88?? And I've always loved those two-tones.
