Looking for a 6.5L Diesel 2-Door Tahoe/Yukon...
1997 to 1999 model years only (only years they made 2 door Tahoe/Yukon with dual airbags)
LT preferred (leather)
Sport Edition with Black lower beltline & fender flares OR
All Black
Rear Barn Doors (preferred)
They are very hard to come by, so if anyone see something that fits, please let me know here or via PM. Thanks.
I only want a diesel.

I have a black '96 Sport exactly as you describe- it's now my son's. I wasn't aware that it was available with a diesel- I've certainly never seen one, other than a military CutV

They exists in diesels, a buddy had one (96 i think) His was all silver w/ matching leather interior. Why would you want one, I seem to remember it wasn't much better than my 6.0 gas suburban.

I had a '96 LT, Green/Silver with the Vortec 350. I LOVED that truck. I really want one that I can lower, put some black wheels on, and justify driving as a daily driver, (diesel). I am not sure a Sport model could have been bought with a diesel. I do know you could have a Z-71 with a diesel; very, very rare though.

With stellar maintenance, the transmissions are good for 100K max (that's with occasional towing with moderate weights)
Maybe the diesel has the 4L80, not the 60

DD,
Thanks for sharing. That is a sweet looking 'burb! I already have a 2500 Avalanche for towing duty. I want a nimble 2-door Tahoe again to run in/out of downtown DC with for daily driving, as a diesel to be a little more fuel mileage friendly.
Below is a picture of my old one in the mountains of WV.

I think I've seen maybe 2 6.5 Tahoes in my life. I think it would be a cool set-up. Kind of like the tugs that they attach to the front of jumbo jets to bring them in and out of the jetway. Turns on a dime and grunts pretty well. Good luck with the hunt.
