I have a white 77 FJ40 that I'm going to re-paint soon. I don't have the correct paint code. I thought it was 031 but that color looks creamy compared to the original color of the Cruiser which is more of a gray/white. The color/trim plate is gone. If you have a White 77 FJ40 could you please send me the paint code. I would like to get it right!

Thanks,
G.O.

Greg,

My '78 is 031.

By the way, do you still have some jump seat straps for sale?

I can make you some jump seat straps. - I have all the parts. What year is the Cruiser? - I'm poking around the net and i see one white paint code was 012. Still looking for someone with a 77 that's white.

Thanks. I need a set of straps for my '78.
 
I have a 1977 ... paint code 031 and it is a cream color as you described. Go to -
- autocolorlibrary.com - and search by year of your cruiser. When you do that, paint code -031 - is on page # 3 - and is listed as "white".

It matced my color perfectly.... but I was surprised that they called it "white" when it is actuall a tan.
 
As I noted before, my '78 was paint code 031. The paint chip 031 at AutoColorLibrary matches the color of my truck when new pretty well. I wouldn't call it "tan". It was richer than plain white and seemed to have a little gray in it for depth.
 
My 81 was 033, I know it is after the model change, but it definitly was an eggshell color.
 
FWIW the jump seat straps can be had from the dealer OEM for about $10 each ;) I have a few pairs.......they are indendical to the originals.....which means someday they will brake down from sun and age................but dang it........ they are OEM :D

if you can get the OEM straps for a 78-84 for $20 a pair - that is a real deal - CCOT charges $20.46 per strap for these and CCOT is usually just a tad over the dealer price. I think the dealer I checked with was $34 a pair. For some reason the straps for older Cruiser with the longer seats are cheaper than the new ones. At any rate - The straps I make are a bit heavier and should last a long time.

Cool. Add a big tarp and some pvc pipe and you have your own energy source.
