Theres so many items to list I will paste the link to the Tahoe's build below. The Tahoe started out as my brothers and I bought it from him. I originally found it and helped him do a lot of the work to it. Its been a lot of fun to have and hope to take it with us to Moab this March.

What happened to the 17" tires and Cragar wheels? What size tires do you have now? Are you running any sort of lift kit?
I'm trying to get my Tahoe into that category as well!
Thanks,

The tires are mounted on my F250 now. The Tahoe currently sits on factory 16 inch chevy wheels with 33" maxxis big horns. It also has a 3 inch body lift.
So I ended up selling my M1009. I now have a Arrival Blue 2003 Chevy Silverado 4x4 W/T ECSB with the 4.8 Vortec with 3.73 gears.
There was a little rust around the fenders. Nothing that was eating through, but it needed to be taken care of. I wire wheeled the rust off and used Chassis Saver to cover and stop the rust.
In the last pic you can see a fender flare to cover the paint. I installed some factory fender flares and you can't even tell I did anything to it.
I also threw on a tool box for storage.
This is how it looks at the moment from the exterior.
On the interior I put in an overhead console, and a 3 cup jump seat from a NNBS Chevy.
Just this past week I put keyless entry on it. My wife for Valentine's Day said she would pay the extra $75.00 to get remote start. I wasn't going to pay for it, but if she wants to foot the bill more power to her
Mods I want to do for the future:
Make a homemade underseat storage box for the rear seat.
6.0 Vortec
NP241 Transfer Case - I just found out that even though I have stick shift 4x4 it is still electronically controlled, and I hate important parts like that being controlled electronically.
Possibly a built 700R4 for the same reason I want the NP241
6" Rough Country suspension lift
35x12.50r16(or equivalent metric size) tires. I'm thinking Maxxis Bighorn, Nitto Trail Grappler or Toyo Open Country M/T.
4.56 gears.
Bedline the toolbox.
Black Linex over the rail bedliner.
Black Linex on the fender flares.
Matched blue Linex on the rocker panels.
Rock sliders.
Brighter reverse lights - I am lucky I can see anything they are so dim.
Brush guard/HD bumper of some sort.
Matching tint on the front windows.
Some sort of performance exhaust that isn't too loud. - I don't want to spook animals when I drive to where I'm going to hunt.

Humm…you sure you want to ride in that truck…and you would have to learn one of “dem new language me boy”
Then again, judging by some past pics could be worth while…

Is that the exhaust stack? I wonder how long it would take in tight trails before it would be ripped off?
I've always loved H1's! Post up more photos
