On the way in this morning I spotted a Typhoon twice (Black with gray decals), and a Tesla Model S at the next stop light (not so much unicorny).
No SR20. That is all.

Good idea.

I love the Typhoon so much you have no idea. It's my old truck (without the engine mods) plus a turbo.
So much goodness in that little truck.

I have wanted since the first time I saw one. That was based on looks alone. Once I stopped being a stupid kid and learned what all the fuss was really about, they were too hard to find. The want is very high. I love S-10/Blazers, and this is the ultimate as far as I'm concerned.
This video did not help the want either.

Where you located? I know there are 3 for sale on metro-detroit craigslist (I look everyonce in a while).
I had a 1988 Chevy Blazer S-10 2 door Tahoe edition for my first truck. 4.3L with TBI. Loved it.
We built the engine from scratch, we got it for 500 bucks with a blown motor.
Mods: bored 60 over, ported heads, roller rockers, exhaust. God what a blast it was to drive. I tried to find one of the turbo kits off a typhoon/syclone to add on to my motor since I knew the internals were solid because we put them there lol. Couldn't find a kit (shockingly).
I miss it terribly and would buy it back to drive in the winter in a heart beat. This little truck drove through 10 inches of unplowed snow with out an issue. Pictures (red blazer in background was it's replacement, I had that for another 5 years before i traded that for the milan):

I would so love to find one of those unmolested with low miles. Yeah, I know, so would everyone else. I loved those things when new, and with turbo tech now... Yeah, it'd be fast!

Toledo. This was my first S-10 (minus the lift). Vortec 4.3, centerforce clutch, full locking diffs, glasspacks. The bane of golf courses and front lawns all over the east side.
Upgraded to this
Still nice and capable, but no where near as fun (autotragic).
I've always been a fan of Dimes, but am partial to the Vortec/pointy nose years.
The Typhoon/Cyclone started it all though.

I just checked those 3 out. The $9500 one has a brand new motor. This could be dangerous. The $7800 one looks promising.

I always liked the ZR2's. thought they just looked fun/aggressive.
Here's a crapload of links for typhoons. Toledo is just down the street! I'm not helping am I? lol!

Various states and quality of course, but the first one for only 7800, which I'm sure he'd take less than because it's been listed for like the whole summer, is the best deal:

HAHAHAHAHA I just responded with all of them and called out the 7800
