hey dizzariot -

Not sure if you mind Salvage title, as so many s13's are anyway.

But here is one green/grey. It was for sale a while back. Blown head gasket but I bet you could talk him down! This was the last one I had seen for sale in green.

^^^ An already built car? Congrats on having money. I'm sure the hunt was horrible considering that car is recently posted. Pretty cool to jump right into the game and already find a niche :

rawgarage · 05-06-2016, 10:05 PM

That's a TX car.... Guy picked it up as a shell way back....

It might not even be a real two tone if I remember correctly

Haha it was tedious, somewhat. I just sold two other 240s, so I decided to go with something I've been seeing in my head for a long while. I have some big plans for it

Actually, the interior needs finishing, and I'm currently building a new heart for it as well. Sounds like someone is a salt dog

Now let's get back on track, and post some more two-tones

Okay, pal. Sounds like a ton of work is ahead of you.

His car has been my desktop background forever and I happened to see his car in explore. Pretty rad.

I hope you fall off your fucking high horse and crack your skull. Dude can do what he wants, maybe he couldn't find a stock, garaged-all-it's-life two-tone to start with. Your attitude sucks.

Ouch. That really stings. Sorry I intruded into your 'safe space' but posting finished cars in a niche thread seems a little bandwagon-y. I'll make sure everyone gets a participation trophy.

Holy fuck man. Call it capitalism or whatever you want but the brevity with which the prices on these skyrocket is fucking insane. Knowing what they can be had for in Japan (original paint, Condition 4) and seeing this is almost disgusting. People are greedy as fuck.

Buttmad may be used as an accepted synonym.

The thread is 10 yrs and 1 day old! Currently still working on my blue/silver coupe and someone I know just bought a green/silver that's wrapped . . . lol I'm going to try to save it from the bad ideas that have plagued it.

I hate when people spread misinformation. In the posting it says 1 of 2286 but that's for the Silver-Green color. His coupe is clearly Platinum Blue, which they made 3720 of.

Creamy Yellow Two-Tone: 686

Making a total of 6692 two-tones for the US.

That g-corp bumper looks dope though

#'s are for 240sx's right?
Its a silvia though, what were the production #'s for Platinum blue silvia's ?

It would be interesting to see. Even then, the car is still way overpriced for what it is.

Agreed I really wanted one for my car one day . . Now that I've seen it I have to say it needs more aggressive aero to really compliment the bumper.

It's a 240sx converted to RHD. Read closely.
