Project Suburban 1500 v 2500

Two different GMT400 Suburbans need some advice here.

1999 1500 Chevrolet 4x4 (first image lifted)

Bad:
Bad motor (bearing)
3 year out of registration

Good:
Good interior / leather
Lift / roof rack
Has 3rd row

$1500

1995 2500 GMC 4x4

Good:
454 motor / TBI starts / 51k miles
Bull bar / roof rack (probably worse mpg)

Bad:
Oil leaks / wet underside
Rough interior
Bearing noise passenger front tire
Seller can’t find a shop to do smog (not a major city)
Former LEO vehicle has running board brackets that are heavy duty like a tow hitch bolted through the frame - hopefully removable as it’s deadweight

$2000 (was asking $4k)

Seems like the ‘99 might be the better buy. If I had the room I’d buy both?

Good / bad deal 1995 GMC Suburban 4x4

50k miles with 454

Former law enforcement vehicle

Busted windshield and rear AC

Located in CA asking $4k

Interior looks rough. What should I look out for really don’t need another project but I want a people mover.

I’m assuming it’s going to be an 8mpg with all the former LEO stuff bolted on. I know the 1995s are frowned upon due to it being a 1 year / in between year.
