Take the stickers off, chrome the rims, repaint the front bumper and you have a truck thats worth something.

This Ty has come up for sale on Ebay or Autotrader at least 5,000 times in the past couple of years.

That doesn't look like stickers. That looks like a paint job someone paid for.

Thats twice as bad. In that case repaint all cladding and tailgate?, and chrome rims.

saw a white/grey typhoon in south san francisco by my dads shop, while i was working on my ty, with typhoon stickers on the door cladding removed and they had a big white bowtie in place of them. tried to get his attention but he didn't even look at me.

man why would you do that ? I mean I couldn't think of doing that to any vehicle let alone something that's as rare as our trucks damn some people lack common sense.. looks like there are even more people lacking taste.

Aside from the paint, that appears to be a very nice Ty. Very clean and stock under the hood and inside the truck. The paint would be a little loud on any vehicle, but on a Ty, it's extremely tacky. ::protestno::

Anyone else notice the description said four door? I halfway expected to pan down and see a four door braphoon type conversion, not that monstrocity.

i REALLY hope that is a blazer changed to a Ty-clone

If not, then it makes baby jesus cry.. Makes me cry, If i would buy that the first few things that would be changed are the side/rear graphics.. Refinish the wheels, fix the front bumper cladding.

Just my thoughts though.

Since I am in the market for a Sy-Ty, I look at these things all the time. Not only is that wrong, the Chevy Typhoon. But it looks like crap! An ugly paint scheme, or decal. Also, I was looking some where else (don't remember right now) and they DID have a four door blazer, claiming it was a typhoon! It didn't have the ground effects, decaling, rims, tires, anything. And it had a two-tone paint scheme.

That 4 door is real.

Are you serious, about that 4 door? I read it and just find it a little hard to believe. It looks like crap anyway, IMO.
