Cool... I saw a 2dr Yukon in traffic yesterday, haven't seen one of those in a while. Didn't have barn doors. Was a 2 tone gold and bronze.

WK: I have leads on Mothertruck and the wagon, but no results yet.

That's exactly how it's going with selling the Buick, a bunch of leads and no results.

I would say Christmas is the biggest reason as to why no one is buying.

Pics will have to wait - I need to replace my rechargeable batteries.

Now I have to run out and get some kerosene so it isn't too cold to get some work done on this thing tonight. Shooting for inspection tomorrow.

Do you live in "volcano age" - the time when lava was free flowing on the earth? :P

Things didn't go exactly as planned. I took the ROPOS to pick-up a few things at Pep Boys for the Tahoe because I didn't want to carry the kero inside the Tahoe. So I make my rounds and head toward the station that has the Kero, just then the serpentine belt on the ROPOS lets go - so I skip the kero and go home.

I do a few things on the Tahoe and back it out of the barn. I go to pull the ROPOS into the barn and the shredded belt takes out the high pressure power steering hose!

What a mess.

Made another run to "the Boys" and picked-up a new hose and PS fluid. I'm done for tonight.

Seems my black cloud hasn't quite left me yet.

Finished my emergency repair on the ROPOS a little while ago. Meanwhile the Tahoe is being checked out for inspection at the Chevy shop. I expect to be doing rotors and calipers on it. I'll be doing the work once I have the list.

I took a pic today, but left my camera at the race car shop (got some Healey pics).

Should be able to give you guys a look sometime tomorrow.

Thanks guys, I like it.

It needs some TLC, but I'll be getting right on that after this monster storm goes by.

I'll be using the 4x4 capability of this and the ROPOS today.

Well, today it wants to be RWD-only for some reason - the 4 wheel drive doesn't want to engage. :cussing:

It worked when I checked it out before buying it!

Oh well, I figure that out later after the storm.

Haven't had time to look yet, but the tires are not so great so it wouldn't matter much. I suppose I could get by if I put some weight in the back, but I'll just use the Ropos for now.

I was a bit disappointed, but it will be dealt with soon.

Congrats on the Tahoe. What year is it (I may have missed that in a previous post)?? Now you've had two 2-door SUVs, I got some catching up to do!! I may have to resume my 2-door Yukon online search, gave up on that after buying the Cadillac in August. Here's hoping all goes well with the minor repairs it needs.

Thanks, Roger.

It's a '95, and the initial round of repairs has been completed. Picked up the spare tire, bracket, and cover the idiot previous owner took out so he could fit in a huge subwoofer box today. Installed them this afternoon. Much of the other stuff I did is in the Winter tire thread, if you're interested.

Definitely...and get some chrome 24s and put on it, and eventually paint it kermit the frog green.

Will you be able to see them through the gold chains hanging from the rear view mirror?
