black firewall :lol:
interesting door panels, but its not OG white, and its not 1 of 600.
Motors been out, and they didnt even bother to paint the firewall to match the truck.
I call shenanigans.

misinformed or not, i think its a very sharp truck - looks real nice in white, i like the hard bedcover, and you have to admit, the interior is incredibly spotless. i'd probably buy it if i was in texas and had the means.

the truck is gorgeous.. but the chrome grille, the enormous tach and the fact that its white.. sketchy

hated cuz he drives fords
well I don't usally like vehicles in white but it looks pretty good to me.. don't like the whole firewall thing, monster tach mountd on console(wtf) and the ugly grille or the fact that the owner doesn't know jack about sy #s.. who knows what else he might not now about like tuning etc.. but I do like the polished stockers..

This is Mike Jeffers old truck.
smashed it, painted it white. Cool truck...always liked it.
I agree, all the time was put into painting...but left the firewall untouched. But then again....look at the Marlboros :roll:

If it's Mike's, they changed the grille after he had it. I still have the
original pics from Mike, and it's got a White/White grill.
I goaded him in to painting it that color after he backed it into a guardrail
at 70 MPH. Messed up the passenger rear corner pretty bad, never
tweaked the frame too much, as I recall.
I've always loved that color combo... very classy. FWIW, the Syclone
Challenge trucks GMC did in White/Gray had back engine compartments
too...
I had wondered what had happened to it after he sold it... nice to see
it's still around. Needs to have the white grille put back in, IMO.
The 1 of 600 claim is entirely wrong, it appears that the guy doesn't
know much about 'em from the rest of the ad.

I think we all agree this is a repaint.
As far as firewall, and it being white to make it look correct...hmmm
As some know I have a '63 Nova also, I did a full restoration on. That car happens to be factory white, and FACTORY has a black firewall.
I am sure there are some white firewall vehicles, but can you imagine keeping it clean.
GM did both, not sure on white s-10's what color they had. I would say it is all personal preference anyways on a repainted truck.

Where is a good source to get the "hard bed cover" like the one on white Syclone??

that looks like a snuglid ... www.snugtop.com ... check out snuglid... only downside is snugtop didn't make a "snuggrip" mounting system for our model which allows for a no hole/drilling installation...

If you look closely, the fire wall isn't gloss black like syclones....
When the motor was out they might have just spray bombed the fire wall flat black to hide some rust. I know ive seen plenty of Typhoons with rusty seams on the white fire wall.
Never the less i think i like this truck better in white...Is there any chance that it's one of those syclone challange trucks?
Someone should get the VIN and run a check (MERK)......
on another note: i sure do miss my Typhoon, I swear i think about that truck every day. Oh well, when i get my new 63' hemi powered dodge 330 i'll feel better....

That truck is sweet. I love it.
Didnt know comp TA's came in 245/75R16. Bet it corners really solid with those.
