Cool, I bumped 3F4 production down from 88 to 87.
This chart is a work in progress... I need people with Land Cruisers to shout out their years/color codes to get them added to the chart, or I need to see the brochure for each year. As I get the information I will complete the chart. I am aware that there were more than two colors for 1986, I just don't know the other colors yet!
my 86 is a metallic medium brownish color. i've been trying to find out what the color is called. i'll check when i get home tonight to see what the color code is.

I guess that the 2 tones were a port option? I have a couple of Beige/Brown combos. Yes this is a JDM truck, but my 90 model is the same color combo and was bought new here in Dallas.
I have never found the paint code for this color brown. The tag only has the code for the beige.

I have the 4G8 beige mettalic on my 73 series .It seems to be a fairly uncommon colour in oz on the 60 series and Ive never seen another 70 series with the same colour.
Some more paint codes on Birfield http://www.birfield.com/modules.php?name=TLCFAQ&p=/~ramullen/FAQ/TEXT/13-00.html

I've had a couple of 62's with the same color combo, gone now though. Additionally, 86 was the only year of the darker beige metallic, unlike the 62 color, a couple shades deeper, had one of those last year.

I extended 8B4 through 87 in the chart. Thanks for the info.
You should check out this site for more info on paint codes and the two-tones.

I am not sure how accurate the paint chips are though as the way they describe my paint code (27G) as containing gray poly doesnt seem correct.

That is correct, there were no US-spec yellow or green 60 series Land Cruisers, although both colors were available for other markets. I believe both colors were available for US-spec 40 series during the 40/60 series overlap (1981-1983); in fact, Landpimp at one point had both colors for 1981-1983 FJ40's represented in his fleet.

Yes, I use AutoColorLibrary quite a bit, but the one thing it doesn't tell me is which model the color came on. Thats the same problem with the list of two-tones that you posted... those appear to be the two-tone colors for all of Toyota's models in 1989. It is good information to have, it just doesn't help me with the FJ60 chart. If someone could tell me which of those two-tones actually were available on the FJ60 then I could add the two-tone color info to the chart.
I think I got confused from a list I had that just listed LCs by year, not model. I removed the yellow and green from the chart.
Thanks, I extended the chart so that 4E8 is now from 86-88.

27G is this one for 61s and 62s. This truck is a JDM 1987. My 1990 was the same color.
Well I know 27G was offered in 89 for the FJ62. Thats what mine is.
the raffle rig is listed as beige metallic 4g8, which i'm guessing by ccots chart is the same as 27g since that's what the rig looked like. that is what's known as "champagne"

So we can safely say that two-tone 27G was available 89-90. Was the 4G8 color available without being in the two-tone mix? If so then I can remove 4G8 from the chart for 89-90 and add 27G.
Not sure what you mean by raffle rig? And no I dont think 27G is the same as 4G8. 27G is a two-tone code for beige on the top and ? color on the bottom of the vehicle (some sort of brown). 4G8 is a solid color.
What CCOT shows as a 27G vehicle I dont think is accurate. IMO
My Canadian spec 1984 BJ60 seems to approximate 8B7 Strong Blue (shows as a 1985 color though). I call it smurf blue. There doesn't seem to be a paint code indicated on either the door jamb plate or the plate under the hood on the firewall. Unless the VIN somehow has that info encoded in it..?
I've seen quite a few Land Cruisers, BJ and FJ 60's in this color and always wondered what it was called.

I had a white '85
In looking at the graph...it looks like the 'white" goes only through 84. I had an FJ60 manf. date of 10/85 - it was white.
