Vehicle Detail

This 1992 GMC Typhoon is in terrific condition. It's quick, tons of fun and very unique. 90% of it was repainted last yet, so the exterior is amazing (9.5/10). The interior is also in very good condition (9/10).This Typhoon is very well maintained. Tune up/all fluids/bushings/etc all complete within last year. Current on all maintenance (two exceptions below). Pictures are with Corvette wheels. I also have the stock wheels available, but like the look of the Corvette wheels better. This Typhoon is all stock except I fixed all of the reliability problems Typhoons are known for:- Aftermarket HD front propshaft (driveshaft) (stock one can break, damaging many other items when it goes).- Upgraded brakes.- HD motor mounts and torque strap (stock Typhoon have so much torque, the motor mounts frequently break).- ABS delete (stock unit is known to fail, causing brake failure).- Aftermarket tune (stock tune can over-boost and cause spark knock, causing cracked pistons).- Carbon-fiber intake tube (stock one is known to crack and send plastic through the turbo). The negatives:- There is a small cut in the driver's seat (see picture).- A few touch up paint spots on driver's front fender (see picture).- Motor needs valve seals ($400). I haven't had time to do it. No risk to motor, just a small puff of smoke at start-up.- A/C holds coolant for only a few weeks. I haven't done any troubleshooting on this yet.- Carbon fiber intake needs refinished (see picture). Overall this Typhoon is amazing and ready to drive every day without hassle. It'll bring a smile to your face at every stoplight! This Typhoon is also for sale locally. I may end the auction at any time if it sells. Edit: I've received several questions about the stock cladding. It is not available. The previous owner removed and sold it because he was going for the "sleeper" look. When I refinished the Typhoon, I decided to keep the clean look it has today. I'm not a fan of the body kit that GM designed. I've never researched what it would take to procure another body kit or replica.
