Here is $1200 bucks worth of backyard frame straigtning on that cream two tone posted above. He posted on FB that he had planned to turn it into a track car/missile. Just glad bills came up and hopefully save this car from him.

I blame Japan for that one, seeing as they made the cars before sending them here

What? If you mean silvia fronts in the US, that is a yes and a no. Any USDM S13 over here with one is a swap, but there are also a lot of JDM cars that have been imported whole.

$1200 worth of new rust holes! woo hoo!

KiLLeR2001 · 11-07-2013, 11:04 PM

Well ladies and gents, the numbers are in.

1990 Two-Tone 240sx's DO EXIST! However, as you can imagine they are extremely rare. They did NOT offer Creamy Yellow's, but they continued a small run of Silver Green's and an extremely small run of Platinum Blue's.

Here are the production numbers for factory original 1990 two-tone 240sx coupes:

Creamy Yellow (#5G8): 0
Platinum Blue (#6G0): 14
Silver Green (#5G7): 316

Happy hunting my fellow two-toners!

zerodameaon · 11-07-2013, 11:08 PM

Out of those 14 its likely 10 of them are crashed, 3 of them are repainted and only one is OG #6G0

Wake · 11-07-2013, 11:12 PM

I bet you all of em are here in the bay.

in that case 100% of them are wrecked.

zerodameaon · 11-07-2013, 11:29 PM

Oh the plight of "missile cars."

Wake · 11-08-2013, 12:04 AM

I have seen more platinum 2tones than any others here, which is strange considering they are rare. Then again I see a creamy yellow almost every year on CL.

Platinum two-tones are the most common of all.

I like the wheels and tires personally.

I think you should add the black stripe around the car where the two colors meet. Also, in my opinion, window stickers look like ass and make you look like a 16 year old, but to each his own.

I absolutely love it! I personally like the same color grille and wheel/tire choice. Glad to see someone is doing it right in Texas!

deolio · 11-09-2013, 11:11 PM

cool aside from the wheel and tire choice.

!Zar! · 11-10-2013, 09:57 AM

That grill needs to be black. Looks weird color matched.
