Dean is that color Horizontal Blue? My build date is 5/72 but I haven’t owned it nearly as long as you.You bet ya. In addition to the regular runs to Home Depot and the grandkids house, she and I have had some great adventures since that was posted. We've made three trips from Florida up to North Carolina for the Carolina Relic Run and a bunch of local trips to parks and to just explore. She even made the Trails End page of the November/December 2022 edition of TLCA's Toyota Trails magazine a few years back when we were riding the trails in the Uhwharee National Forest.She's still going strong and as dependable as ever. And she is too cute to leave at home in the garage.

The original
The original color was Horizontal Blue but after having waxed the top layer of paint off all the ridges (and before "patina" was cool) I decided to paint it in 1999 to ward off the rust that we are so famous for in Florida. Anyway, the color is Ford Baffin Blue and I'm told it's a dead ringer for Carolina Blue (Tar Heel Blue). It turned out to be a few shades lighter than I thought it would be from the paint chip at the paint shop, but it really has grown on me.
Thanks for the info.
