1991 GMC SYCLONE MARLBORO EDITION T-TOP 3,400 MILES

[great white]

Meh, too much for an AWD s-10 with a turbo.

Yes, I said S-10.

I had a typhoon while I owned my SS. About 8 months. It was a cool vehicle, but I really liked my SS more.

A friend just bought a white '93 typhoon with a ton of mods. I went for a ride two days after he bought it. Next day it ate a front driveshaft. They are fun to work on...no space at all compared their bigger trucks.

They are known to do that

You could buy this instead and save a few thousand.

Amazing to see these low-mile clean, clean trucks show up, like this '93. I don't think anybody bought them new thinking they would keep them pristine because they'd ever become some sort of valuable collector's item.

They are getting harder to find in this original condition. I bought my 1992 Silverado new also and has never seen snow. I avoid dirt/gravel roads.

The Sy/Ty's used the same drivetrain & transfer cases as the all-wheel drive Astro vans, less the turbo. Not sure if the 4.3 in the Sy/Ty's used 4 bolt mains or not.
So...for 1/10 the cost of that T-top truck, why not build an all-wheel drive S10 utilizing a V8. With no logos or the body kit & made to run fairly quite, that could be a great sleeper! Until the word got out! Lol!
There's a slammed '59 El Camino with an all-wheel drive system around here. All modded from St/Ty/Astro van parts, although he has a 383 stroker under the hood! He had to make custom 1/2 shafts to handle the SBC's extra torque. And, he always has more than a couple of transfer cases on the shelf. If he doesn't explode the case, (the weakest point) he rebuilds them himself.

That's amazing. Even original tires it looks like.
