The VERY BEST color of all the colors that 'Cruisers came with from the factory, and almost 100% sure it's the color mine will be one of these days!

464 Dune Beige

If you ever wondered where the "Dune" part of 464 came from, take a look at a Dune Beige '40 in the desert and in a sandstorm - it's a pretty good match. You can see the crest of a dune in the background. Trimmed with 900-16 sand tires, it's a 1983. They are called "Ruba" by the locals, meaning 1/4".
Son age 13 driving and wife in the back - that's the way the locals would do it.
Pic #2 shows the same 40 under a blue sky with green all around ... in Canada, without the sand tires and #1 son driving.
cheers

Looking on SOR.com site you will find a link to a trip Marv Specter did to Saudi Arabia. In the film clips he is in a junk yard in the desert. Almost every one of the 4X series was Dune Biege. Seems like about the only color Land Cruiser you got in the seventies early eighties.

Not a Toyota color, matches ok with Ford beige or tan.

looks gray to me... are you sure this is beige 464 and not dune beige T416 which is more grayish and less "butterscotch" like?
the newer (1979+) beige was just called "beige"... they lost their inspiration for funky names by that time.. :)


Not the original color, but the newer 464 Dune Beige

A 'Cruiser just doesn't get any better looking than that... There may be other 'Cruisers that look like they are meant more for hard core rock crawling and there is a beauty in that, and still others that look exactly like they just came off the show room floor and there is a beauty in that, but IMHO, THIS is the perfect mix of all things that a 'Cruiser is meant to be! :cheers:
