    GMC Syclone

    Cool little truck, big powerful engine. I didn`t get to perfect paint but customer understands. Lots of orange peel from previous bad paint job, customer just wanted it to look better.




    ONR wash
    Nanoskin medium clay mitt
    Compound - griots FCC on lake country MF pad
    Polish - HD polish+ on orange buff and shine pad
    Wax - poorboys natty black
    Trim - carpro PERL neat
    Tires - Meguiars hyper dressing

    Well done and that is quite a motor for this truck, explains the wide rubber in the back.

    Sweet!!!

    These came when I was in high school and still think these and the Typhoon are cool little turbo AWD machines.

    I have to imagine the AWD is gone with the swap now though.

    I wish the come out with a new version.

    There were just a few thousand Syclones
    and Typhoons manufactured.

    Too bad (IMO) that this truck
    is not in "Survivor" mode.

    Re: GMC Syclone

    Only 4697 typhoon's produced and 2995 syclones. I wanted either as a collector (probably typhoon because of how tall I am) but talking to people, it doesn't sound like they will be worth much money in the future. Even on a syclone/typhoon forum, most said their not going to be a collector car.

    Re: GMC Syclone

    They have not yet caught fire with
    collectors. Maybe they never will.

    •However:
    -Many of the remaining Survivors have
    selling prices nearing, or at, the original
    MSRPs. Wait 'til their numbers dwindle
    a little bit more...

    •But:
    -Will the owners of these iconic, compact GM
    trucks give up on 'em before this happens?



    •Whiskey.Tango.Foxtrot.:
    -Did I just use iconic, and GM,
    in the same sentence?!?!

    Nice work and it does look a lot better judging from the 50/50. Cool truck!
