Is this the right pumpkin / orange colour ?
It is a customer's vehicle that was restored a few years back.

[QUOTE=Reedo311;3838290]So it seems that the paint question about the silver/grey trim I was hoping to find on this thread wasn't really answered.
I've got a '72 808 Horizon Blue FJ40 and am looking for some information on what color to paint the following items: (all of which appear to be gray but are they the same gray?)
Front bumper
Rear bumperettes
seat frames (front and rear jump)
mirrors
ash tray
glove box door
gauge face plate cover
wiper motor
Wheels
I am trying to keep restore this one to original and would love to get the stock colors.
You want ash grey metallic, its in the FAQ.

I saw that same color on a Cruiser in Arkansas and have been trying to get the color code ever since. Its probably Fashion or Breathe Green, but I would like confirmation also!

If it was a factory color and since it has a square bezel then maybe 653 Olive Green?

Not olive green, and unless the light it weird in the picture, I don't think it's nebula either.

Here's another one, found on eBay of all places. Unfortunately the owner didn't have a clue about the color.

If your local paint guys can't use the factory codes, you could always buy a few different samples of touch up from these guys.
Select The Year
Once you had a color, your local guys could scan and match that.
Here's the thread where that square bezel owner chimes in on his rig.
http://forum.ih8mud.com/40-55-series...-skinnies.html
I'm almost thinking that Ralph's 40 is a 70 series olive.

And the plot thickens.According to Toyota Colour Codes Dulnain Green is Toy colour for 1970/71 but it is a metallic paint, so it seems our misterious green is not Dulnain.
However in the "ultimate Skinnies" thread we seem to have stumbled upon the actual owner of that truck. He however doubts if it was OEM. Further info pending....

If you're looking for T303 this might help, its from message #132 earlier in this thread.

If I could find an inexpensive source of custom mixed rattle-cans I would purchase a can each of Breath and Fashion Green just to see what they look like on a larger panel. A 1x1" paint chip just doesn't tell you much.

I just realized that the numbers under each color chip on the chart posted by Greek (message 199 on this page) are current PPG codes.
Breathe Green is PPG#44399
Fashion Green is PPG #44402
Dunlain Green (metalic?) is PPG #44401
I assume pretty much any body shop can match a PPG color code.

Thanks Belaw, I am wanting the 653 Olive Green. I will start a search for it now, is PPG a company or brand of paint or both?
