I have ALWAYS wanted a Syclone. This was the quickest vehicle in the world in ‘91 and the fastest truck to 60 FOR THIRTY YEARS. Imaging a GMC pickup truck being faster than every Ferrari and Lambo on the market, insane! I went to buy the cheapest running and driving (roughly) one I could find in 2000 miles. After digging into the truck, with the body, and running like a mess, it was really hard to justify the steep price tag.

Turbo mini truk
Howd a S 10 beat a porche
I bought a typhoon off the showroom floor way back in the day… can’t wait to see what you do with it!! Maybe hemi time????
Pumped for this build!
I love that you passed on the truck. Hate watching channels bring home some turd, jerk around with it then park it in the weeds for forever.
I can't wait to see this build. Awesome truck to start with as well.
Instantly subscribed when I heard you are doing your own thing, good luck to you mate.
I was curious what you were up to since the Facebook post with the truck. Awesome to see an update.
I know where there’s a matching less then perfect typhoon sitting rotting away in a old couples back yard. They are both so cool.
Building a 1994. GMC Jimmy 4 door it has a 4.3 vortec i want to drop a 3800 supercharger
Good move, but buying it would have also been understandable. That one looked pretty cool in it's highly unusual rattiness, and the wheels and body kit just makes the Syclone so cool and exclusive. Really no wrong answers there.
I think you made a great decision, and I'm looking forward to the build. Thanks Tony.
The 1989 Pontiac turbo ta was the fastest production car from 89 and forward .. it would eat the cyclone and typhoon for breakfast
GMC's 1st SPORTSTRUCK.
Back in the day in my small town. A guy had a cyclone. Was interesting truck
As cool as high production values are, please keep it on your own channel if possible!
Check gauges refers to the cluster not getting proper signaling due to a major short (usually from a mouse/rat chewing it) but also isn’t just allocated to the gauges. That platform has the headlight-gauges-radio on a tandem wiring. So if one has an issue, they all do, cause that’s what I’m fighting on my s10 project.
Now this is going to be sick!
Is this retribution for selling that "highschool ripper" s10? I know you had circumstances with that. That forced the sell but it was a heart breaker. I'm keen on what you do with this. Turbo 4.3 awd?
Definitely from the golden age of GM surprising the market with unlikely performance vehicles. Park it next to a Lotus Carlton and you'll have the perfect pair…
CANT WAIT TO SEE FUTURE VIDEOS ON THIS CLUNKY BEAST
Thank the f**king lord you and the boys are back doing here with the usual shenanigans. I've really missed the more garage level side of the car shows like yours, Finnegan and Austin.
Classic case of l known what I have no low ballers.
Barb gave the right advice. It sucks to overpay for something because of rarity or insane demand, but at least it should be in decent shape if you do fork out the cash. You'll get over it 😛
I have transfer case 94 Astro and front shaft if interested
Car guys are the best at naming.
HELL YEAH!!!!
Which one is quicker the cyclone the typhoon or the gn/gnx?
Good choice and a great plan, hope the axles are up to the task !
the ol'body lift, haven't seen one of those I awhile
