Sy and Ty Spotted in Anchorage Yesterday

[Timbo]

Black/black '93 Ty parallel parked on H&5th at about 2:20 PM. It did not have personalized plates. I'd never seen this one before, so I thought I'd check on the board. I also saw a sy at 10:42PM headed SW on Spenard just past the Minnesota intersection. I didn't catch the plate # on it, but it did have a tonneau, and looked pretty dirty.

Funny Tim. I saw a real clean blk/blk gassing up at the Chevron on Boniface and Northern Lights this morning a little before 9am this morning. It was a nice looking blond girl filling up the truck. I'm not sure I have seen this one before either.

Stopped by the Hewes coffee stand (across from Sears, next to Benny's food wagon) for my morning mocha before work. They had thier red/grey there. They are the folks that also own a Sy and a Blk Ty as well.

I didn't get to look too closely at the black/black Ty. Unfortunately I was on my way to work and couldn't stop to look. All I saw as I drove by was the color, the basic Typhoon shape, orange Alaskan plates, and the gold GMC Truck sticker on the tailgaite. It did look very clean though.

I imagine that the Hewes people own the black/grey Ty that says HEWES1 on the license plates. I spent too much time trying to figure out what that meant. Is that also their red/grey '92 that's usually at Builders' Millwork Supply on Tudor? I know I've seen the black/grey there once. The red/grey was for sale not long ago at Park & Sell on Old Seward & Dowling, but it's back at BMS and the for sale signs are gone. I had a look at it while it was at Park & Sell, and the sign said to call Larry or Brian, and gave 3 phone numbers. I have the info written down somewhere. I wonder why they decided not to sell. If they have two Tys and a Sy it's a wonder we don't see them on the UBB.

Have you been driving the Ty at all lately? I still have yet to see this Royal Blue beast of yours.

Yea that's his. Dad owns that coffee shop, but works at BLM - and yea he alternates between the red and black Ty's to work. Whichever one he doesn't drive, it seems the others drive. I think Brian is the son, but not for sure.

Since SyHopeful is coming to town, maybe we can all meet somewhere - you, Jason, Jamie, and I'll see if Hunter will bring out his - or meet over at his shop - who knows.

Alright, I saw another black/black '93 yesterday at about 3:25 going down Minnesota. This one had black wheels, and looked pretty dirty, so I don't think it's the same one mentioned earlier in this thread, but I haven't seen this one before either. I've also seen a black/grey '93 with stickers on the rear window a couple of times. A short lady with dark hair was driving it. I mentioned this one to Pete on Monday after I saw it for the first time. I thought SyTys were supposed to be rare. It seems like I see at least one everyday now that I'm working in town.
