Paint scheme help (1 Viewer)

[Trakkateer]

I'm making a model for Christmas for my brother of his favorite car, the 81(?) long bed he had 25 years ago.
It was beige with dark red around the fenders, and I can't remember if the rockers were also dark red.
It might not have been original, but it didn't look aftermarket.
Does anyone recall a paint scheme like this, even if the colors were different?

Something like that?

Geez, that's a nice truck. But, just so there is no confusion, it's not a 1981. Makes me miss my 1982.

It says 81?. I don't remember any 79-81 in this scheme.
That and i spent 15 seconds looking on the google

1979-1981 had round headlights. 1982-1983 had rectangle headlights.

That's it! That's it that's it that's it!
It had a similar shell as well.
Thank you so much.

Funny, so did I. Loved that truck. If I knew then, what I know now.

My first Toyota was this 79. Swapped it to efi and 5 speed etc etc. Definitely miss it.

1979-1981 had round headlights. 1982-1983 had rectangle headlights.

I had a paint accident on the bigger one, and fell in love with them, so I had to buy 2 more for my brother.
The bigger one is radio control, and the headlights work.
