Thats Breathe Green on the bottom... Popular on 55's...

I do not see Breathe Green on this list:

Toyota Reference - Information and Specs for all USA Toyota, Lexus and Scion Cars

I do see Fashion Green and Judson Green (?) as options for earlier Pigs, but not for my '74. Fashion Green looks to have cut off in '71, Judson Green looks to have cut off in '72.

It looks like the only options for green Pigs in '74 would be Rustic or Nebula.

I think mine is too light to be Rustic.

WTF is Judson Green?

TJ:

I have a spray-out card of Breathe Green that another mudder shared with me; if you would like I could send you a sample; then you can go to an Ace hardware and have them color match a quart for $10 and test it in an inconspicuous spot!

PM me your mailing address if your interested.

Left to right they are:
Greyish Olive (6H9)
Fashion Green (T303)
Breath Green (T1654)

here is the breath green

 

[thecrazygreek]

I have discovered that chart is not that accurate for all years.

It's Breathe Green... It might be Nubula, but I doubt it...

this is Rustic... and Judson Green

 

[nicholastheczar]

Greek or Belaw -

Do you have any color samples of Rustic Green? I'd like to get some of that mixed at ACE to test.

If you look on your door jam you can see that the paint is darker...Not as much sun exposure = less fade. I say that your faded part does look like Breath green, but going by the door jam it could be Rustic Green. The color in the door jam has almost an aqua hue, but computer monitors don't always represent colors well. Polish up a section in the door jam and compare it.

Here is my color from beneath the tailgate and inside the gas door:

Ige's color chips from a dealer book only show Rustic or Nebula as options for green in '74: IH8MUD.com - View Single Post - Best Fender Repair Thread?

 

[thecrazygreek]

Looking inside the gas door makes me think its Nebula now. Thats the best representation so far I have seen. I still think it may be Breathe...

 

[PabloCruise]

Could be... Belaw is sending me a spray out.

I just can't find any Toyota literature that supports Breathe Green on a 55 in 1974?

 

[girraffe]

been looking at for color codes for my 1962 fj40 and found this through a link. is this at least pre 1963 color chart?

 

[jaxonm]

FJ60 Brown

Does anyone know the paint code for the FJ60 poop brown color? Like the one shown here...

 

[butchaxe]

What Color code?

This is listed on Ebay right now. I dig the color. Seller says it's Toyota 0416 Dune Biege and it was only on non-USA rigs. Doesn't look like any other dune beige I've seen but I like it. Can anyone confirm if this is a stock color?

What color code is the for RM or PPG Paint?

 

[Droopz]

Does anyone have a paint code for the gray used on the Icons?

Well, thanks to belaw for letting me borrow his spray-outs for Breath and Fashion Green.

Here they are hanging up on the side of my Pig.

Sorry the light is not better!

Fashion is on the left, Breath is the card hanging on the right:

Looks like Fashion to me
