FJ60/62 Color Chart



Here is the color and spec chart for the US-Spec Land Cruiser FJ60/62. If you see an error please post it here and I will correct the page and graphic ASAP. You can upload a photo of your FJ to the site by clicking on the above graphic, then clicking on the appropriate camera icon next to your color.

I will make updates on the chart within a day of any errors or additions posted. To confirm or add your color to the chart just post a photo or description of your car along with the model year (or production date) and the color code. The three-character color code can be found on the production information affixed to the vehicle.

When I painted mine, I used 4E9 which I think is an '87 color Toyota Beige

Freeborn Red is missing. I believe that all model years were available in Red. I had an '87 that was original Freeborn Red.

Noticed also that the white and 'rootbeer brown' is missing.

Landpimp,

So those colors on the brochure are for FJ40 and FJ60? That seems strange. Seems like they would have different colors on the different models.

yes, its from a dealer only publication, it is accurate


white, red and biege were the same for the 60 and 40, as you can see there were no fancy names for the colors in 82. 81 and I think 83 are the same.

scionlife-

I think mine are accurate, feel free to use them for your 62 colors.

88 Colors
89 Colors
90 Colors

This is just my personal site and not intended to be any sort of difinitive information. Ignore style inconsistencies, still playing around with it.

I've got an '89, the last 3 digits of the VIN are '494. Is that the paint code? I have always heard it described as 'champagne', but I guess it's really beige metallic.

It does now!

OK, got the new colors from that brochure added... stretched them from 81-83... if that is wrong then I will change it down the road.

Today! I actually was working on that when I discovered that this topic had tons of new information. I should have an FJ55 topic up within the hour.

Chris, did you get that color information from paintscratch.com? I have found their information to be very innacurate. I integrated your colors into the chart, but it seems strange that during 88-89 there would be two beiges that are nearly identical... and that during 88-90 there would be two grays that are so close. Something seems fishy.

Cool, it matches the chart info! I think I am going to assume that if your 1989 Beige is 4G8 then there was no 4E8 for that year.

Hmmm... I seem to have a small discrepancy in my info. My charts have the FJ55 ending in 1979 and the FJ60 starting in 1981. Is that an error or was there no 1980 Land Cruiser?

i have an '87 that isn't quite red. it's almost like a burnt orange and red cross.
the truck was repainted, but it seems to match the area's that were not touched up.
i have pics but it just looks red in them, but in person it's not really red.

where on the VIN tag is the paint code?

Yeah, I'm not 100% sure if your VIN plate is the same as this one, but possibly...



It should be on your firewall... can someone verify this?

Some from here and there including paintscratch (I have used their paints and the match is remarkable) but as I state on the page - the color codes are right but the colors themselves shouldn't be used for color matching. I 'll take a look at the colors you mention, maybe I plugged in the wrong hex codes.

Do you differ with me on the color codes themselves?
