Typhoon
Was browsing flickr and found this pic, the photographer says it is a Typhoon. The location is over in the United Arab Emirates. Can't tell if its really a typhoon or not, but I hope not.

noticed the same piece for the bumper as well.
if you look close, you can see the seat frames match a 92 style.

heres what I want to know. who was the aerial shot taken by?

Heres the same photo taken in photoshop and levels adjusted to see the interior somewhat better...

Heres the other with levels lightened.

Something else to consider.

loool, laa that was our friends car.. its a gmc typhoon, well el7emdillah no one got hurt.. hehe... there was a gas leak

Banana, actually no one was in there, once the owner noticed the car started to catch fire he got out :) . .


I see all the footprints around the truck, but I dont see any tire tracks, except the ones on the lower right, which are definatley not the mystery fire truck.

cool... he didnt have any front shots?

was looking around his album...looks like those guys camp out alot in those dunes, so that might be the answer to no tire tracks...truck might have not moved for awhile when he went to start it up.

Re: Flickr find (pic)

no front shots I could find, a comment in the album said it was caused by a fuel leak

i think its a reg. s10 front bumper...its flat on the top.

there was obv no cladding on the thing before the fire started. I don't see a floor shifter inside. There are no rivet holes in the doors/quarters for cladding hardware. I say NOT a ty.

The owner probably just got fed up with it being broke all the time. :rotf:
