you have no idea how many of those two-tones I ran into when trying to help j3studio get his 85!
I always liked that 2 tone, tho. Very nice, and the slightly darker bottom really popped in the shade. |

Mine was the first two tone blue c4 vette I had seen, while 99% of the time it was the two tone bronze vettes that I seen were everywhere. It just seems that darker bottom makes the belt line stand out more pronounced then the solid colored Vettes and to think at one time I was planning on painting the entire car dark blue, but not now, going to keep both blues.

They actually made more blue two-tones than light blue metallics in 1985 ... ... there was a two tone blue 1985 at the NCRS National Convention this year. Sharp car - had the cloth sports seats. |

Matt383 has a super car, I think it's an 88. It's a dark blue, kind of a midnight blue. I don't think it's a factory color, but that car is the prettiest C4 I've ever seen, no matter what the year. He's selling the thing, if I were rolling in cash, it would be mine! As for two tones, CSS996 always expressed that he liked two tones, then he went and bought a ruby... go figure! |

You hit the nail on the head, Dale!
 I sure wanted that Silver/Gray '85 that was in Iowa. But I believe I got a better car at a better price with the Ruby. I still really do want an early C4 in the two tone silver though. If I ever come across a super deal on one, I will probably do something that will get me in a LOT of trouble with my wife.  My buddy Randy T. From the other site has a silver vert in addition to a blue on blue coupe. I haven't seen either in person, but the vert is for sale, and I want it SO BAD! It is not two tone, but it could be.... I just can't do it right now. I did invite him to join us. Hopefully he'll sign up. He's a busy guy right now. |

It was almost comical. From what I can see and what I've read, you did very well. There are merits for both early and later C4s. If I bought that black rose 92 I was looking at, I'd probably be wishing I had bought my 87 instead. But, if I had it to do over, I'd have gone with an LTx car. |

Well, to be honest, I drooled over yellow ones too. Lots of drool. All over the damn place.... :tongue:
I tried to post a photo of a two-tone silver I have in my Vette pix folder, but Photobucket is being crappy. Has not let me upload anything all week. POS.  Well, whaddya know. You just have to get angry sometimes....  |

There certainly were alot of the blue 2 tones. Franklin mint even did their 84 model in it! (click to open BIG in new window)
 However, when I think BAD 2 tone I think of this pic I'd saved! OK so its not exterior but its SO weird. Gold and Blue?!?!  |

interior is graphite.
it only need some small mechanical maintenance when i bought it (water pump, mufflers, and some clean up under the hood). the guy i bought it from didn't want to mess with it. he set a firm price, so i test drove it and handed him cash.... |

OK, I love my two-tone. If I had to replace it I might even convert a one color vette to two-tone. I first saw a silver/black coupe long before I bought mine. It was raining out, and it looked bad-ass. A year later I bought mine.
