750$ in glass and glass seals for this hawg.  that has to be a record.  have to remember that.  might be cheaper to drive to PA or OH and grab some cabs with good glass and parts geese!

starting to round up parts for this as the 53 now moves and this is next i think. 

looking for and escalade or yukon for it.  (116" wheelbase)

front end tight on this Denali

2020 date code like new tires all 4 corners
2021 battery
oem cats present
new brake MC
brake lines replaced with copper at some point

frame rust not really that bad
AWD Tcase doesnt appear to have a selectable 2/4 or lock, so that should be easy

looking like a good buy so far
listed some stuff for part out

tearing it down today and tomorrow.

gage cluster is 1/2 dead (i guess common problem) 
no CEL until i unplugged the MAF
not sure. 


i bet a doll up and 3 hrs work i could have daily'd it for 2yrs or doubled my money. 

will be a good hotrod chassis though if i can make it work.  looking good so far for 1400$
