'93 Ty, #1105

I wasn't expecting to do this any time soon, but after trading our family car for a Volvo sedan I went ahead and bought a matching wagon for my own entertainment. I traded for this Typhoon back in March of 2010, and have rebuilt the front end with poly-graphite bushings, upgraded to 2000 Blazer front brakes, lower control arms, and sway bar. Johnson intercooler pump hotwired to run w/ ignition, I/C hardlines replaced w/ heater hose, home-made intercooler scoop. The stock turbo has had the wastegate ported, and stock dp modded to match. Running $59/3-bar on an Ostrich 2.0. PLX wideband is wired into the ECM, but I haven't installed the gauge since I never decided where I wanted to mount it. Gauge is included, though. Interior is in good shape, with no cracks in the dash or door panels, and no tears in the leather. The driver's seat shows its age (stretches), but is intact. ABS is functional, but a/c isn't (all there but discharged). The truck does have pretty high miles for one of these, but still runs strong at 182k. No leaks from the engine or tranny, but the output shaft seal from the t-case does have a small leak. The truck had been repainted at some point before I got it, and will need it again. The clearcoat started peeling when I first brought it home, and hasn't slowed down. The sides of the roof, and hood show the worst of it. feel free to ask any questions here or pm. Asking $4k.

Thanks for the comments, guys. I'm not leaving syty-land, just going to throw my time and effort at a Volvo instead for a while. If there's a question I can help w/ on the board, I'll chime in when I can. BTW, I LOVE having a 5-spd again.

Dang, that's too bad to see you're selling it Steve. I'd buy it back in a heartbeat if I had the room to keep it. Other ones in a storage unit as it is.

I can hold onto it for you, Casey. ;) Problem is, I'm about 2 hrs away from you now, since moving down to Bremerton. How's school?

Steve,

Hang on to that thing! You are giving that truck away for 5500. Just hang on to her till she sells or better yet, take her to some hot-rod shows this summer and put the price tag of 6K on her, she will sell there. It's a matter of finding the right buyer.:tup:

Yeah, I've thought the same thing too, Craig. My heart just isn't in it any more, and I'd rather spend free time working on the other cars, or playing daddy.

Steve, be patient. That truck will pull at least $5,000. Some on here will PM you dog food prices and then peddle it on to their advantage. Hold out for a bit....you will be glad you did.
