TESTING THE WATERS, TO SEE IF ANYONE'S INTERESTED?
I'm thinking about selling one of my '93 Typhoons. It's #0157, It's original except for the visor, (yeah I know) spoiler, radio, battery, and alternator (which I still have). The visor/ spoiler were put on by the 2nd owner, as I'm the 4th and I have full history of the truck, as well as Sportmachines info. I've owned this for over 8 years and still have the window sticker, but sadly misplaced the records while home remodeling years ago.
The paint, interior, decals, power train, etc is bone stock and original, and it has the (2nd set) correct Firestone Firehawk tires. The engine is unmolested and I still have the factory "tags" off the engine. Never had the "purple wire" problem, or the notorious broken console and glove box doors. Only flaws are: very slow leak on the oil return line, rear wheel clear coat (if looking for it) is starting peel or blemish, right door lock needs new motor, and there's a small crack in the door panel from the 3rd owner replacing the window motor. Interior is just as clean, no rips, tears, fading, or stains. The carpet is very nice and all electronics work as they should, except for the driver side electric door lock, which will unlock but not lock w/ the button. Frame is very clean, has a light surface rust on the springs and axle, but nothing severe. Body is straight, solid, and any dents found were repaired via paintless dent removal by my friend who runs the local Dent Wizard. Paint is deep, glossy, and very impressive for being a complete original paint job. Must see in person to really appreciate. I planned on never selling this truck, so I took care of it.
I've kept it covered in a heated garage and it's fully detailed by myself every year and ran throughout the winter while stored. I only drive it 1k miles a year, but put 2k on it this fall due to good gas mpg. Only boost launched 4 times, never raced or abused, and only serviced by myself or my best friend (GM Tech) who is educated on Sy/Ty. I have only let a handful of close friends drive it before under my supervision. It still has the Electronic Leveler Control and Bilsteins and drives just as comfortable as my '06 TBSS. I have another Ty w/ 40k and it's nearly 100% comparable to this one with 67k miles.
Only thinking about selling it because I own 2, and found a few other even more rare S-series trucks I'd like to acquire. I'm getting it appraised next week, So I'll know a realistic ballpark on price. I can say I haven't seen many, if any true survivors left out there like this, so I will be asking a little higher than most trucks. But if, because of the current market, it's low balled, I'll just keep it. I ask if your looking to buy to modify, race, or winter drive this Typhoon, please don't inquire, as I'd like to see it go to a great home that is going to preserve and enjoy it. Thanks.
I took some pics today with a borrowed camera, which I should've turned the flash off, so the pics didn't turn out good and don't do the truck justice. So I'll have to get some better ones posted soon. Link to more pics here: http://s336.photobucket.com/albums/n351/ty_guy93/TY0157/

Its hard to say what its worth the way things are at the moment:dunno: I would say hang onto it if you can because the market is very bad at the moment and you dont want to be kicking yourself in the future when the prices start to go up, and they will.:tup:

Re: Orig. Stock Ty (feeler ad)
I would have to agree with UK-Ty. Its really hard to know what value things hold atm. I guess its worth what the high bidder will pay? It is a really nice Ty with only a few minor issues. Those issues can be easily fixed to.

Appraisals are great! Especially for insurance purposes. But it's the market that dictates to price of these things and the market blows right now. You have to be willing to hold out and wait for the right buyer...eventually, (especially when this economy thing blows over), you'll get your price!! Good luck. :tup:
