Hello everyone,
Ok I am ready to start digging in on my FJ40 and spend some money to get it looking good and being a usable machine instead of the paperweight it was used for the last 2 years by the previous owner....
Here is some pictures: (excuse its condition, this is how I got it)

1. I wanted to know what color you guys think this is???? I think paint and bodywork is important, How do I found out oem color? I thought it was white, but some say it maybe that light tan color. Looks white to me?
2. The bumpers, frame etc. need paint should it just be painted Semi gloss black?
3. Also I noticed a light grey color used on the back seats, does anyone have something that is close to OEM in that color?
4. The hardtop on mine appeared to have insulation glued to it on the inside and most of it is removed. Did it come with insulation? I was thinking of just stripping it and painting it the same color as the outside.
5. Any other suggestions on getting this thing back to decent shape?
Thanks guys!! Also wanted to share my FJ40 since I am new to here.
