With 238k on the clock it’s got some rough spots inside and out as expected, but all of the work the previous owner had done earlier this year (last two photos) makes me hope...

    Hi everyone. First time poster here. I'm trying to resurrect air conditioning that hasn't worked for some years in a 1997 C2500 Suburban -- single AC system (no rear air). I thought the system just needed to be recharged, but it has proven an exercise in "chase the problem." Took it in for a...

    '94 black su-bourbon

    Mom just picked up a 94 black burb 4WD that's 95% perfect. Super jealous. Her previous 800 Denali was a good runner with that 6.0L, 4l65e, AWD was nice, but the whole things just been having issues that we just don't want to deal with. Long live the 400's!
