You may want to clerify your description a lil better; someone may think there buying or trading for a real GMC Typhoon...

Its a 98 so cant be a legit Typhoon - but I realized after I posted that I didnt put the quotations in the title. Truck is a CLONE. Email/text/message me for additional pics. -Ben

I know that and you know that; but this is a Fiero forum

Is it fast?

It went 14.2 @ 93MPH in the 1/4 on 10PSI. Wasnt meant to be an all-out race truck - just a fun DD/Grocery Getter/Kid Hauler

I'm open to any reasonable offers!

...not even close to a clone.

Now if you had done it as an Indy truck clone...

Truck was built the way it is when I bought it. Ive just maintained it and added a few parts here and there periodically.

Any offers?

People may be worried about mileage with today's gas prices. Though some turboed cars when tuned right are more fuel efficient than they were n/a (my buddys turboed hemi magnum was great on gas on the hwy)

So on that note, I am curious, what fuel mileage does she get? and is it smog legal? That would definitely make an interesting family hauler and tow vehicle

I'm gettin around 24mpg around town just driving it. As far as smog legal, Im not sure - I dont live in a smog state so I have no idea how any of that stuff works. It has the tow hitch on it

Truck is still up for grabs! -Ben

its different and seems like a sleeper..but its not even close to a clone..are you running a stock 4.3L bottom end on it?

Its the Vortec 4.3 in it. It is slightly heavier than I Ty I know - and isnt running the same boost as a Ty, so its significantly slower because of this. It is a super sleeper from stop light to stoplight as far as the truck goes though.

yours


typhoon


not a clone. fail.

Not sure why people pipe up to be negative, looks like the above posted didn't even read the whole thread.

I would need it to pass emissions here so unfortunately its not for me, but bump for a nice truck
