I love this combo and I am not sure if it was ever officially made..

1. Anyone know what this is?
2. Anyone know of an all inclusive resource that lists / shows all of the editions etc?

I suspect that it is a custom paint job. Look at the brake calipers, they are about the same color as the bottom half of the body.

The brake calibers can be painted to match any cruiser by the owner. There was a special edition with the two tone paint and I believe you had your choice of a few different combinations. I'm sure someone will come along here with the exact year and combinations.

The 2004 Dream Cruiser Series 3 had the blue over silver.

Found this in a web search about the 2004 models......2004 base models include an optional 16" wheel package and an upgraded suspension. Also, the chrome pkg now available on base models, and the base model bumpers are painted.

Two-tone paint schemes include black below the beltline with optional above-the-belt colors of silver, red, electric blue, seamist, and almond.
Factory flames have been discontinued, but the woodie package is still available.

Dream Cruiser Series III
Expect a mid -model year release, limited production begins Jan. 2004. New Paint Color is Midnight Blue Pearl over Bright Silver two-tone paint, the only colors offered. New interior is a two-tone leather interior and unique Blue tinted glass.

Thank you both.. See if they did not kill all the fun out of the new model I would just get a new one.. Grrrrr.

There is a nice low mileage 5sp Dream Cruiser on Cars.com I have to sell the SRT-4 first.

The other way around. Black on top, with the other color on the bottom.

I stand corrected. Can't believe everything you read on the internet.

But I don't believe the 2 tones were available in a turbo. The one pictured has turbo wheels on it so it might be a custom paint job.

Hello all , I know this PT, it is a Turbo and that is the factory color. White traded in his Aquamarine PT for this one. Great combo, we actually have 3 of these same colors in our local club. Happy Cruisin !!

Ok, my turn to stand corrected. I love the 2 tones, especially the black and red. PT Tom has one too.

I've seen a red and black two tone here in LA. So they do exist!
