Project TTTYPHOON
Well it is time for me to start a project thread. My original plan was to build a high performance Syclone but opted to sell the project in favor of a typhoon, Since I already have my Xtreme and the typhoon offers more creature comforts, which gives me more opportunity to for custom interior( My favorite part of a vehicle) and the ability for a cruiser of sorts.
The project is mostly being performed by myself, friends, family and a few old school guys from way back. My first truck was a 92 blazer (still have) but the last few years have been working on classics such as a 68 impala, sisters street rod, countless el camino’s and so on. But this project is more of a modern day streetrod so the best of both worlds.
We have been working on the truck for the last couple months and some of the build details are a half ton front differential, a 12 bolt rear end with 33 spline axles,rack and pinion steering, Full coil over suspension, Custom tubular control arms, triangulated 4 link in the rear, Front and rear Sway bars,fully boxed frame, c5 disk brakes on all four corners, Hand made sumped aluminum fuel cell, Also will be featuring 18x 10 in the front and 18x12 inch in the rear typhoon wheels( Stock appearance but bigger). Enough for now on the chassis on with a few pictures. I only get to work on the weekends which I go to school in Fargo, ND and the truck is in the Twin Cities, MN. But after Dec. 10 I am done with school for the semester and will hopefully get a lot done in that time.
I would really like to acknowledge my parents for their constant support and Mike(Acehaag)Haag since the chassis fabrication has been done completely at his shop and he has spent many hours designing parts and helping work on the project. There are many others to thank and they know who they are. Thanks again and now our feature presentation.
Here is a picture of the truck it is a 92 typhoon black/black.
