    Stolen Typhoon and Syclone from Venice area today!!!!

    The below was copied from the syty site. I used to own a typhoon so I am big in the community and always hate to hear any car getting stolen. I know this is a tight knit community here in socal so I hope if anyone sees or hears anything to let me or the owner know.



    Hey guys, I haven't been on here since I sold my typhoon and it saddens me that this is what brings me back here. My friend Paul James had his 1992 typhoon and 1991 syclone stolen this morning from the Venice area of Los Angeles. He recently purchased the Syclone but the typhoon was passed down to him by his dad who was the only owner and recently passed away. It was an heirloom that he would refuse to sell so this is even harder than just a stolen truck.


    I am working on getting more details and pics but I will make due with what I have at the moment. I am posting this for him as he is busy trying to get security footage from his area and talking to police.

    If anyone sees anything suspicious or has any info please contact Paul james or myself, I have put our numbers below.

    Contact info- Paul James (310) 924-7112
    Eddie Burke (310) 980-4583

    Date Stolen- 2/12/2014

    Time Stolen- Approximately 6am this morning




    Typhoon info

    License plate # -tyfoon

    Color- Black




    Syclone Info

    License Plate #-37557d1

    Color- Black





    Please, please, please everyone keep an eye out and send this info along to any other forums that might help. I will be reposting this to r3v and lafixed, we are all a tight knit community and this always sucks to happen to anyone.

    If these get returned there will be no questions asked and I am even offering out of my own pocket a $1,000 dollar reward leading to the return of these cars. Again, no questions asked.

    Wow thats unfortunate. Would be hard not to spot those cars since they're so rare. I only know of one other Syclone in the valley going to have to tell the owner about this. I'll keep my eyes peeled.

      Ya, its such a small community that I think it would be hard to part out a car and not raise suspicion. When I owned mine I was always stressed out parking it anywhere or even leaving it at my house for extended periods of time. Definitely let your buddy know though to keep it safe.

        I bet if you see a grand national around with a new turbo 6 you'll have your thieves.

            Think you're off on the years. Syclone is 91 only and Typoon is 92-93.


            But best of luck to the guy!

              I have the syclone as 1991 and the typhoon as 1992. Where do you see the wrong years so I can fix it.

                      Growing up my neighbor had a syclone, it was a sweet truck. I was sad when I didn't have the cash to buy it when he sold it off

                        Ya, these trucks are super powerful. I was back on the syty site and started looking at some Typhoons for sale.
