1 of the 3 Raspberry Typhoons (#1312) has been sold

OK here it is, a VERY rare one up for sale. Located in S.E. Michigan.

I am the second owner. The truck runs and drives good, and is a reliable daily driver. It looks good from about 10 ft. has 139k miles.

It does neeed some work, there are a few spots of rust starting, and a few minor (and common on Typhoons) mechanical issues.

Details and pictures are here; http://aastairs.googlepages.com/raspberry1312

Feel free to ask any questions, or for more pics of anything. I will answer as best I can.

I have been talking with a couple interested people on this for a while, but to be fair to myself I decided to post it up here for everyone to see.

I am asking $9500, which that is probably on the high side for a Typhoon that needs the work this one does. But this is no ordinary Typhoon. You could buy a cheaper Typhoon, and fix it up, but you can't make it one of the Raspberries for any price. But you can take this one and fix it up and have about the rarest Sy-Ty that exists, something sure to attract a lot of attention. All of the rare / unusual parts (wheels, cladding, seats etc) are there, and in decent shape (though the wheels need refinishing)

I am open to offers also. It took me a while to settle on that price and it isn't set into stone, just a starting point. So P.M. me, or email at the address on the website above.

Really doesn't look bad for the mileage. I'd like to have a Radar and a Raspberry, but I'm broke right now.

I don't think T-bone is interested. He doesn't like the color.

There is a post in the lounge on why I am getting rid of it. http://www.syty.net/forums/showthread.php?t=52378
In a nutshell I already have two toy / project cars, and this one was supposed to be my wifes daily driver. However she really doesn't care what she drives, and would be happy driving anything. I am afraid this will get ruined serving as a daily driver year around. So I would rather sell it, and get something a little less rare for her to drive in the salt and crazy drivers this winter.

Jimmy, I have tried taking a couple of pics of that label, but it is hard to see all of the codes due to glare. I will try to post up a couple of the better pics of it tonight.

All we've got to trade is a loaded '99 Explorer 5.0. It's in near perfect shape if that matters.

Gee that's too bad. I thought the same thing about my Teal/Teal Ty when I first got it. In fact, I almost repainted it and changed the color and it's one of 30-50 or so and possibly a one off GM VIP S.O. truck at that (no one is sure...... for sure :roll: , due to the spotty production record count :squint: ) but the color "grows" on ya :rotf: . This is a pretty verified one of three or four ever built though and they aren't really pink in person. The one I saw in 94' (in person) actually looked real good :tup: !

No way! It's 1 of 3 or so (unless someone faked it, but I think yours has a documented history). I was just more interesting tidbit, GM probably just pulled off a Random Ty off the assembly line which happened to be white.
