I two-toned a 140 at the mid-line in 1979. I hadn't seen it done before, but sometime later I saw a similar Rolls on the Rockford files, and felt like my taste had been confirmed.

Nearly 20 years later, I did a repeat on the 240 below (actually 260gle V8 conversion).

It has Ipd lowering springs,'83 bumpers, hood-grille-lights from a '78 242gt, and 240 turbo wheels painted to match the upper half (a mid-80s Alfa-Romeo pale green metallic). The lower half is a Ford pickup color, Woodland Green metallic.
