Wouldn't the bezel and the roof match?
Nit-picky but it does matter to some....FJ40 was 1961+ not 1958+ common mislabel.
FJ25 1958 to 1960. Colors were different too, find the chips and codes and I'll kiss you.
Capri Blue needs to be pushed back a year to '68. And if anybody finds a color code for the bezel for that year I'll appreciate it!
Haha... maybe I will come across these colors someday. I changed the text in the chart to show the different chassis code. What engine was in the FJ25? What the FJ25 imported to the US?
Also, should I give the FJ25 its own chart? It would really be the 1st-generation if it was imported, and the FJ40 would be the 2nd-gen in the US.
Ok... I've been to many paint places and searched for the "SHELL IVORY" T302 color and have had zero luck finding this color. From reading the MANY posts about bezels on mud and elsewhere the general concensus is that:
1. There were a few colors for the pre 71 bezels ranging from a tan to a very white color (and chrome too).
2. T302 Shell Ivory formula is lost to the ages.
3. As LP mentions, the top and bezel colors don't always match.
4. I've obsessed long enough regarding this color and am gonna match up the original roof color and heading out today to get a quart or two and paint the thing and be done with it! (I'll repaint my top as well. I also found out that the clips that retain the tire jacking stuff on the wheel well were also painted this white color.)
Since I can't take the roof to the paint store, I'm gonna go with my wifes choice using a color chip from Lowes and have the shop match it up.
Trekker: The formula used by Toyota USA for your color is listed in the Toyota Refinishing Guide used by the dealers in the Seventies. Toyota USA used Rinshed-Mason Products as their OEM colorists. R-M was owned at the time by the Inmont Corporation, later acquired by the huge conglomerate BASF, but it still exists as a paint-line today.The Guide only lists their acrylic paint formula(Alpha-Cryl), not one for their enamel. It states:Shell Ivory (Roof Color -- Land Cruiser) A-TO195.A competent paint shop should be able to mix this for you using the following base//setting formulaNT-90 (their color thinner) = 100; AT-190 = 700; AT-174 = 848; AT-141 = 896; AT-179 = 900; AT-100 = 1000.Please be advised that this is a historical OEM formula from the Seventies.Hope this helps you and any others searching for the authentic OEM color........Bear.......
