Stock bezel/hard top color for white 77 FJ-40

[michael.collins]

All - I'm in the process of doing a frame off restoration on my factory White 77 FJ-40. The PO re-painted it white about 10 years ago, and in the process painted the bezel black. As black was not a stock bezel color, I'm trying to return it to factory specs. The tag on the inside of the fender says that the body color is 031 and the trim color is T-12. Does anyone have a Cruiser that follows this color scheme, with the stock bezel color intact? It would seem odd that the hard top, body and bezel would all be the same exact color of white, but I've seen weirder. Anyone have any pics, brochures, etc that I could use as reference?

Thanks,
Michael

As I recall the body color 'white' is really white vs. the top and bezel color that is off-white, ivory, oyster or the like. Didn't we just go over that? Anyways, the body is probably brighter than the top and bezel.

From http://www.autocolorlibrary.com/cgi-bin/search/search.pl :
Body
Toyota code 031 = White PPG color code = 90100
Trim
Toyota code 012 = Cygnus White PPG color code = 9219

Color codes can also be found on the Cool Cruisers of Texas web site.

That thread is nonsensical until the final post.
