I took a drive up to Wal-Mart to get a coke and a V8 for my wife just now. I was bored and the ole SVO hasn't been driven in days. So I parked a ways out in the parking lot to avoid scratches and to get a little walk in Well as I'm walking through the lot I do my usual look around for cool cars, you never know what you will see in my town. Now I get up to the handi capers almost to the front door when this S-10 parked in a hadi cought my eye. It was a late 80's or early 90's with fog lights on it along with ground effects. I said not a lot of old timmers put that stuff on there cars/trucks, so I took a closer look. It turns out it had GMC on the grill and this made me a bit nervous. umm could this be what I think it is with a handi cap tag hanging down from the rear view mirror ? I just had to get a up close look at it and its sides. Sure enough it was what I had thought it was... a 91' GMC Syclone The very type of vehicle I have been trying to land for 5 years now. I came so close to buying its cusin the Typhoone but the deal fell apart One of these days my sig will read 91-92 Syclone/Typhoone, 85' SVO and 04' Tahoe. One things for sure, that is one ole timmer who could out run anything I got

Yup I did get to test drive the Typhoone I was going to buy and it was Sooo sweet. The guy was the best owner I had ever seen own a car. He loged every mile driven and everything ever done to it. He was a rancher and had like a huge shop that it set in and never got rained on etc. One day I will own one and I hope its from that ole timmer or that rancher, nothing like buying a car from someone who hasn't raged it out

I like them too, but I've never see one in real life. There isn't any out here it seems.

I like most of all SBCs' starting at the 283ci till present date plus the good ole 4.3 V6 Well I was at Wal-Mart yesterday and saw the Typhoon I really want I was talking to the guy about the one I almost had but my bank had to see the truck which was 300 miles away Anyways I told the guy about the one I was looking at and the owner loged everything down right down to each refuel. This guy told me he does too but its a small log so fair at only 17k on the truck
