ATTENTION INVESTORS
Astonishingly well preserved, 117k miles, GMC Yukon SLE, 2WD, in EXCEPTIONAL condition and obviously well maintained its entire 23 years. Recently completed a $12,000 restoration and mild customization. Comes with two wheel/tire packages! Originally titled in Arizona, this great looking classic Yukon lived in southern California for several years. Now she's back in Arizona. Comes with original leather-bound owner's manual and two remote key FOB's. No accidents on the clean Car Fax.

EXTERIOR
The tasteful exterior customizations on this well preserved time capsule include removing all badging and body trim. The car was then resprayed in the correct factory white, that was then ceramic coated in the correct five step process to preserve its luster. All window glass is good, chrome bumpers are factory shiny, roof rack is good condition. Completely new halogen headlight and tail light kit, plus LED chin spoiler cowl lights. The original headlights and tail lights are saved and come with the car.
WHEELS/TIRES
You get two sets. Not either/or, you get both sets!
1. Brand new 17 inch American Racing Torque Thrust II wheels, and 255/70/R17 Hankook Dynapro II sport radial tires were just added. These show in most of the photos below. Very low (almost no miles) on this wheel/tire package.
2. Nearly new American Racing Baja Wheels and Firestone Destination tires 235/75 R15, with less than 2k miles. See at end of photos below. Please note, photos of the black wheels were taken before the 3/2 suspension drop. So it sits lower than what you see in the black wheel photos.
INTERIOR
All original dash, seats, carpets, door panels, and headliner are in excellent condition. This low mileage SUV was definitely babied over its life, showing very little wear. All dash features, gauges, front and rear climate control, window and seat motors, heated rearview mirrors, courtesy lights, etc. are functional.
Audio upgrade includes a Jensen 240 watt, 9-inch touchscreen multimedia receiver with Bluetooth, USB, push-to-talk voice access, 8-band graphic EQ, speaker upgrades, and Boss subwoofer. The installation was done by a pro audio shop and NO cuts were made. I also have the original Delco stereo in case buyer wants to return to stock stereo.
MECHANICAL
The drive train and suspension have been gone through from stem to stern, with hoses, belts, wires, gaskets, and fluids changed as needed. New R134 AC system, water pump, fuel pump, power steering pump. New brakes all around, new master cylinder. New battery, new Delco air shocks. New upper control arms and bushings, Pittman arm, engine and transmission mounts, and transmission tail shaft.
Suspension lowered by a professional shop, with a 3-inch coil spring drop in the front and a 2-inch drop in the rear using lowering shackles. No cuts! The result is a subtle 'California rake', a slightly forward-leaning stance.
Custom cold air intake and upgraded fuel injection system have turned this slick Yukon into a bit of a hot rod. The truck is very fast. Upgraded Flow Master exhaust adds a nice subtle rumble. Undercarriage and engine bay are ASTONISHINGLY clean and rust free as photos show, with still glossy factory paint on the rockers and floor pans! The vehicle is essentially in Barrett Jackson showroom condition. It meets California emission standards.

INVESTMENT
I have many repeat clients because I focus on extremely clean, all original, low mileage cars with only a few prior owners. This pristine Yukon is another example of that investment strategy that I have stuck to for 15 years, with over 60 cars.
Over $12,000 has been spent restoring and tastefully customizing this beautiful Yukon. Make it your turn-key daily driver, or a preserve it in your collection. Definitely one of the nicest examples in the country and a huge value, given that a new Yukon can go for $60k to $80k. Late 20th century GMC Yukon's are becoming collectible, and in my humble but experienced opinion, well-curated examples like this will go UP in value, not down. Now's the time.
