1999 Chevrolet Tahoe LS 2-Door

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Out of a combination of a lifelong automotive passion and an unyielding desire to support the people of his Alabama community, the Generous Collection was born. Mr. Greg Rusk, a successful business leader in the cardboard industry, with a big heart for helping families and friends in times of need, would regularly pay overly generous fees to acquire an interesting vehicle. After decades of collecting and supporting local automotive enthusiasts, the Rusk family is ready for these vehicles, each with their own story, to write their next chapter back on the road, where they belong.

The Generous Collection returns with Part 2 offering over 250 cars in August all offered without reserve, emerging from years of long-term silent storage. From the quiet shadows of the Generous Collection to the sunshine of backroads and highways, enthusiasts now have the opportunity to own a piece of a generous car-collecting legacy.

The 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe was a full-size SUV built on the GMT400 platform, sharing its architecture with the GMC Yukon. It was powered by a 5.7L Vortec V8 engine producing 255 hp and backed by an automatic transmission, and it offered seating for six, as well as up to 118 cubic feet of cargo room.

The Tahoe’s body-on-frame construction and solid rear axle with leaf springs provided durability, off-road capability, and a towing capacity of up to 7,000 pounds. And features including dual front airbags and ABS made it a safe utility vehicle as well.

The LS trim level included many standard comfort and convenience features like power windows, locks, mirrors, and driver seat, along with a tilt column and leather-wrapped wheel. And because the 1999 model marked the final year before the Tahoe transitioned to a new platform, it was the most highly refined version yet of Chevy’s rugged yet comfortable SUV.

This rear-wheel-drive example is dressed in Summit White with red cloth upholstery, wears 20” aftermarket wheels, and is powered by a 5.7L Vortec V8 backed by a 4-speed automatic transmission. It has been registered in the Southeastern U.S. since new.

This 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe is now represented at no reserve by a Broad Arrow Specialist with a CARFAX Vehicle History Report and a clean Alabama title in the current owner's name.

Please note that all lots in The Generous Collection are offered after many years of storage, without operation or service, in warehouse facilities. The seller endeavored to provide very limited mechanical servicing to bring some cars back to running potential; however, not all cars will be running at time of sale. Because of the extended static display, it must be assumed that all cars will require extensive additional mechanical attention before being driven safely and, in most cases, cleaning both the interiors and exteriors. All the cars will have imperfections associated with long-term static storage and require extensive sorting to perform best and safely. The burden of determining a car’s status, both mechanical and cosmetic, rests fully on the bidder, prior to bidding and the close of the auction. All lots are sold as is, where is.  

Additionally, due to the location of the collection and limited access to the facility following the close of the auction, all lots must be retrieved while a Broad Arrow representative is onsite, between the hours of 9AM to 6PM local time beginning Monday, September 14 through Wednesday, September 30. No cars can be retrieved prior to September 14, and any lots remaining after September 30 will be re-located outside in the parking lot for retrieval by their buyers.
