I have up for sale a very rare, highly modified, and well taken care of GMC Typhoon. This car is a one owner with extensive ownership history. In 2005, after 12 years of ownership, the original owner decided to fully restore this truck, and spared no expense in doing so. This project was a labor of love for the original owner and his kids. So much has been replaced, rebuilt, upgraded, it is going to be very tough to cover everything, but I am going to try and do it in bullet point form: The truck was completely stripped down to the bare frame and rebuilt with lots of new or reconditioned parts: Body: -Completely stripped and disassembled, body mounts rebuilt -New GM licensed front fenders, wheel wells and core support -Tailgate stripped and redone -Filled roof seams -Roof rack removed, holes not shaved but plugged, retained chrome rails -New non-wiper tinted rear glass, with defroster($100) -Paul's select front bumper with 2nd gen crystal lens foglamps($860 + $300 - fogs) -Black gloss firewall, wheel wells and core support -4 coat GM Dark Spiral grey metallic, 6 coat DuPont clear($7,377) -Heavy duty headlight harness -Custom drivers side relocated battery using stock cables Engine (Receipt for engine build: $8,514.05) -Stock block, bored and decked @ 4.030 -4 bolt mains, ARP studs -JE pistons -Eagle rods (stock oil pan was swedged for clearance) -Stock crank, magnafluxed, polished and internally balanced -Melling high flow oil pump -Edelbrock double roller timing chain -Comp cams 415 ( changed from 422, too much cam for the build) -Vortec heads, 3 angle valve job, light polishing, stainless 2.01/1.64 valves -Crane 1.6 Gold series self-aligning rockers -Vortec modified SyTy manifold, polished by RPM($450) -75# PTE injectors -Accel 8.8mm plug wires -Autolite race plugs -MSD blaster GM coil -BBK 58mm throttle body ($345) -HKS SSQV blowoff on custom throttle body mount($198 -ATR stainless headers, rewelded and ceramic coated by JetHot ($995 + $330) -Fluidamper neutral harmonic balancer - Accel 4.3 distributor ($299) -Garret GT-35-R turbo (ball bearing), .83 A/R SyTy housing, 3" compressor($1,555) -RPM air to air front mount intercooler($922.19) -PTE internal wastegate downpipe($675) -ATR full 3" high flow exhaust with cat($465) -Walbro 255lp/h in tank pump -Volvo electric fan with custom relay controller -JSM frame pads with Moroso solid mounts -195* thermostat, OEM Jimmy waterneck with fan control sensor installed Engine management -Low impedance injector driver modified ECM ($299) -Custom tune by Nolan running through moates switchable chip adapter -3 bar MAP Driveline -Built 700R4, 700Raptor shot peened input and output shafts, kevlar clutches, 5 gear planetaries($4,615.91) -9.5" Billet converter, 2650rpm stall($618) -Gilbert propshaft -rebuilt front / rear axles -Eaton 7.625 carbon positraction differential($416) -Rebuild rear end with Eaton Diff and all new bearings/seals($768.33) -B&M HiTec Trans cooler, 13 x 9", sans fan.

Needless to say this truck is ridiculously fast! The Paint is very nice, with a few minor imperfections(See pics). A few rock chips up front and right about the rear window there are a few small bubbles in the paint. The A/C blows ice cold and everything is working the way it should. All Lights, gauges, Etc work great. I have a file with almost every receipt from Day 1, including the original window sticker, Bill of Sale, maintenance receipts, ETC. I started adding up receipts for work done during and after the restoration, I got to around $46K and then stopped. That does not include the $1,000's of $$$'s in receipts that I have before around 2005. Whoever gets this truck is getting something very Special! Please see fresh pictures and below that are some restoration pics: RESTORATION PHOTOS |

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in
Sat, 15 Jun 2013You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.
Huge, pricey trucks haul jobs and profits for the Detroit Three
Tue, Feb 5 2019DECATUR, Texas — Mickey McMaster is on his 12th pickup truck. The 61-year old farm equipment dealer in Decatur, Texas, two weeks ago treated himself to a 2019 GMC Denali for around $69,000 — a reward for long hours at work. "For me this is the Cadillac of trucks, it's a real luxury vehicle," McMaster said. "I've worked my way up to afford a truck like this and it shows that I've earned it." McMaster is the kind of customer General Motors Co is banking on as it plans to add 1,000 jobs at a plant in Flint, Michigan that will build a new generation of its largest pickups. Demand from Texas and other heartland states for big pick-ups is providing a lifeline to many workers the No. 1 U.S. automaker is laying off at plants elsewhere. The Detroit Three automakers and thousands of their U.S. workers are counting on customers like McMaster to keep buying bigger and more luxurious pickup trucks even if overall U.S. vehicle demand weakens this year, as most analysts predict. At Flint, GM will build a new generation of its heavy-duty Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierras, including luxury models that are some of the most profitable vehicles on the planet. GM, Ford Motor Co and Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV's Ram division own the segment and are each doubling down with new or redesigned models launching this year. Sales of heavy-duty pickups in the United States have grown to more than 600,000 vehicles a year, up more than 20 percent since 2013, according to industry data. Prices for luxury models can easily top $70,000. GM on Tuesday celebrated the launch of a new generation of heavy-duty GMC and Chevrolet pickups at the assembly plant in Flint, Michigan, that is now building all such trucks for the company. At the same time that GM is laying off thousands of U.S. workers and planning to shutter five North American factories, Flint is hiring. The plant runs on three daily shifts, six days a week. As the new model's assembly system ramps up, the plant's capacity will increase by more than 25 percent, plant manager Mike Perez told Reuters. The Flint plant plans to add 1,000 workers, more than half of the 1,500 factory workers who have asked to transfer from plants GM has targeted for shutdown as part of CEO Mary Barra's restructuring plan. "We're bringing in 50 to 100 people every week," said Perez. Workers last week were still finishing the job of retooling the Flint factory to build the new heavy-duty trucks as part of a $1.5 billion investment project.
GM recall woes continue with 662,000 pickups trucks and Cruze sedans
Sat, 29 Mar 2014General Motors can't seem to get its name out of the "bad news" column. Two more recalls were announced late Friday evening that will see The General calling in 490,200 fullsize pickup trucks and SUVs, along with 172,000 Chevrolet Cruze models.
For those keeping track, General Motors has issued recalls for an alarming 4.8 million vehicles so far since last month.
The Chevy Silverado 1500, Tahoe and Suburban, GMC Sierra 1500 and Yukon models from the 2014 and 2015 model years are being recalled for a flaw in their transmissions wherein loose oil cooler lines may cause a fire. The automaker said in a statement (see below) that it knows of three incidents of loose transmission lines causing problems, but no injuries. We can't confirm whether it was this transmission issue that caused the widely publicized blaze that consumed a 2015 GMC Yukon that was being test driven in California.
