Anybody know what the colorcode for this is? I believe it is a stock color.

I like the side mirrors.

I would say thats based on several things like angle and sun reflection.

Pollux Orange...Also my favorite stock piggie color. Kinda scarce, not many around. Excellent choice.

Polux Orange Paint Code is 304. Used on 71 -73 Toyota....based on the BASF puter. Another one that looks pretty close to some of the above images is Pueblo Brown Code 415 as discussed here https://forum.ih8mud.com/showthread.php?t=91117&highlight=paint+codes

Here is the pic from the 73 Factory Brochure that
i have, note the price for each vehicle the FJ40 was
$4495 and the FJ55 was $5395

Oddly enough, both my 73 started out that color and ended up some form of green. The gas tank filler is that color though on the dead one; I'll see if I cannot get a picture this weekend.

From the birfield site it doesn't look like they ever had a cruiser Polux orange for a 55. 304 on the color codes from birfield don't show up on the two tone?

Nevermind I found it it says for 71 to 79

 

[toddslater]

If someone has this color as original and could post up their paint code (if it has it on the drivers fenderwell tag) see pic, then I can run it down thru the BASF puter....complete with formula if you need it.
