Give it a chance. I'm like the rest of you. I want to see it when it's done. It'll kinda suck in a parking lot because it swings out before up so have to be kinda by yourself. It may turn out good. Looks like there is a lot of work in it. It's outside the box for sure.

I'm so embarrassed to live in the same state as that guy.

I like the targa Sy (especially 'dem red ones :tup: ), but that Ty looks kinda goofy :lol:

At first I thought "what the hell?" then I saw he was in Colorado and it all made sense.

One less Teal makes my squeeky clean all original Teal worth just that much more!

I know this is an old thread, but I think I found this Typhoon on Craigslist.

I was going to try and go look at this thing over the weekend. He wants $4,500 for the truck as it sits. Does not run, and has no interior.

He will sell as is or part it out. More $$ than I think it's worth but he had some parts that I was interested in. If I'm able to make it down I'll take pics for everyone.

I had a strong feeling that truck would never get finished... I don't know how you could make the gullwing work on doors that heavy.

Re: Gull wing Typhoon doors!

I just went and looked at this Ty today. This Ty has been here in town for YEARS. I remember when it was Teal, it was a damn good looking truck. Owner painted it a green flake or something and I personally thought it looked awful. I hadn't seen the truck until about winter 09 or so. I went in to the shop to investigate this Hydrothol thing and saw it in there getting the gull wing mod. It looked so damn awful I walked out laughing my ass off.

Seeing it in person is super depressing. I told Rusty, the owner that if he needs help parting it out I am up to help out. After all, there are a few things I want off of it:lol: We are meeting up on Friday to talk about it. Honestly, I don't think this truck is worth saving.
