Re: syclone engine and wheels
I emailed him a few days ago about the parts cause I am searching for a tailgate. He said he would sell it, but I asked about the truck and if that was for sale and hasn't said anything. I have emailed a few times since but have not gotten a response. I hate to see a good truck chopped up, He did mention he got it for a project and decided not to do it so not sure if that means a major projem with the truck or not but is partially apart, but no rust. (no rust? is that possible lol)

As much as others don't like it, the seller is probably correct.

Re: syclone engine and wheels
i sure many will flame me for this but to be honest i have a 92 with 66k on it sitting in the garage , absolutely nothing major wrong with it, needs some minor stuff done to it. ive kicked around letting it go, if i do decide to let it go it will be in pieces also.... lets face it these trucks aint worth dung in stock running shape let alone modified... the only people that have a clue what they are are on here and we all know how it goes when one comes up for sale that isnt 100% rust free and show room condition, even those go for dirt. just my opinion.

Re: syclone engine and wheels
at some point they will bring money in. I remember when I was first looking at grand nationals and I learned what a GNX was- you could pick up a clean GNX for 20K around 2000-2001..... fast forward to 2005 and they were going for 60-70,000. all it takes is for enough of a limited production run vehicle line to get parted out, wrecked, crushed, or stolen and disapeard to make the others one day shoot up in value. just in the past few years ive seen syclones going from 9,000 for a clean driver unmolested now to around 15-16000$. any car that appreciates is worth hanging on to.
sadly I did part out a grand national- only because it had t top rot and was unrepairable without a donor body

Re: syclone engine and wheels
I don't buy any car as an investment. im just saying guys who think they are better off parting out a clean truck could really be kicking them selves in a few years.
I bought my ty because ive always wanted a syclone and I found a typhoon for a decent deal, not to make money on it
