consolation prize

So a week ago my wife decided she was sick of her '99 astro and was taking over my blazer GRRRR so yesterday I found a found somethin I can handle as a consolation prize and she throws a fit.
So I remind her well remember my 97 s10 zrs pickup? no comment (she totaled it) remember the blazer I liked so much that you decided was now yours? again no comment (I thought so)
Amyways here's the new toy 85k miles on it, pretty good for a '93 imo and omg is it a blast to drive!
Wife wanted to take it to the store I told her ohhhh nooooo you dont even get a key to this one just keep your hands off it's mine!

aww sweet dude! i love typhoons!! so fast!

Lucky sonuva...couldn't be happier for ya!  Congrats!  DEFINITELY keep the keys away from her!

Sweeeeeeeeeet Ride..Pure white NICE..Can i drive it?? J/K lol 

looks really good. is it a typhoon?

yup typhoon all the way #103 of 2200 made that year thought i was gonna have to change my shorts when i seen they only wanted $7k for it I knew right then and there I HAD to have it, now if I can just figure out whats wrong with the power seat/locks (think the circuit breaker in the fuse box may be bad went to pull the fuse to check that and burnt the heck out of my finger when it touched the metal circuit breaker)

cool. not many around anymore

dang thats a steal for 7K most typhoons i've seen for sale r over 10K only a few i've seen for 9K. wow wish i coulda found a deal like that but then agian i dont have 7K lol or anywhere near it lol so congrats!!

Awesome find man! Just wow. Wish i had me one of them.

Hahaha, I just thought of this while reading the title.  If that's the consolation prize, what did 1st place get?

it was sarcasm...i couldn't resist lol. she is sooo mad I found that and won't let her have it. the old phrase careful watch you wish for, you just might get it comes to mind lol. she wanted the '94 well she got it and now i'm not nearly as mad as i was. although no way in the 9 circles is that typhoon going out in the mud so now imma have to find me an offroad toy too.

on a side note figured out the seat/lock/overheating circuit breaker issue did a search on here and found a thread where lastcoupe suggested checking the wires under the seats, sure enough from it moving back n forth over time it wore through the insulation on the wires, little electrical tape and some plastic conduit to cover that sharp edge of the seat and voila! everything works and circuit breaker isnt blistering my finger when i touch it anymore.

Congratulations!  thats an AWESOME truck and your a lucky SOB to have one

Nice truck, lucky for you. 

Sweet find, I wish I could find one of those around were im at for a nice price plus good shape to mention!!!

Awesome!  Looks good and nice to have one with low milage.

Dude... That is a very good find.  Dad had an opportunity to get a Sy, but the price wasn't right and it was all messed up (SMASHED bed).

Ok that is NICE!!!!  Lots of luck with the truck!  

You ought to get a video of that thing in action!  That's sweet.

nice!

Kinda looks like this one.
 
....and this is just awesome!

when i was a little kid, my neighbor used to have a black one, and i thought it was soo cool, he used to do burnouts all the time, and i thought it was awesome.

well the chick I bought it off of said her best time in it was 12:20 but one of my instructors owns a racetrack and has offered me 6 hours of free time on a day they are closed to the public to run as many passes as i want when they reopen in the spring so i'm def. gonna take advantage of that will let you all know how it does when i have firsthand experience with it. gonna be a blast having a second toy to play with at the track during the warmer months.

UGH dude SOOOO jealous!! The only thing I like better than my Blazer is TURBOCHARGERS!
