I hope I'm right, I was pretty excited when I saw this puppy! Me and my dad went to his old stomping grounds as a kid (Greenwood Lake, NY) and as soon as we get into the town I look to my right and see a purple-y/blue Blazer lookin thing sitting in the parking lot of a repair shop. I told my dad to turn around immediately, I needed to do some investigating. I'm almost sure it's a Radar Blue and it's definitely a Typhoon, I called up my friend who works at GM and he plugged in the VIN in his parts catalog at home and it came back as 92 Ty #0731. I have no idea where the cladding went, the shop was closed. I believe the only stock piece left is the roll pan, the fender flares are huge and the bumper is cheesy as hell. It has a weird cowl hood with a funny inlet on the passengers side, it might have an aftermarket intake. It definitely has a stock turbo/dp and it's on Vette wheels, 17" up front, 18" out back. The body is in OK shape, it would be a somewhat easy fix, it has some rust on the passengers side but other than that it's pretty straight. No Typhoon stickers, aftermarket GMC Trucks sticker on the tailgate. Used to have a roof rack but it was half ass shaved, the metal strips are still intact. Full stock 92 Typhoon interior except for some "wood" paneling on the dash, doors and console. White face gauges, boost and water temp on the a pillar and fuel pressure mounted in the cowl.
Now that I look at it, maybe the fender arches are stock, but I don't know, they looked kinda big in person. The registration expires in a week so who knows if this guy just dumped it off at this shop or if he just hasn't put the new sticker on yet. I left a note under the wiper blade and directed him to the site and told him to contact me if he's not already on here.
Anyways, onto the pics. Sorry they aren't the greatest, I forgot my camera at home so I use my dads not-so-great-quality 8.0MP Olympus for these. I'm just more impressed that I saw a possible one of less than like what 5? car in a town with a population of about 650. Plus I saw a C4 ZR1 and a barbados blue GTO...Pretty cool cars for a lame town!
I'm kinda hoping it's an original Radar and not repaint but after thinking about it, it might be a repaint because the hood matched and whatnot...Oh well, still gonna post up!
Full VIN: 1GDCT18Z0N0810731
I have the full album in the next link but since Webshots apparently doesn't allow external linking to single pictures I uploaded a few to imageshack. Enjoy and let me know if this is the real deal. I know one of you Michigan guys can work some magic...Unless the owner is actually on here!
