Tan 80 ??? (1 Viewer)

[TEXASLAWMAN]

Any body have pictures of a Tan 80 Im thinking of repainting mine and would like to see what it would look like... I know it looks good on the 40, 60 and the FJ.....

It looks most awesome...there's a few pics 'floating' around this site of a few Desert Tan 80's. I wish I could find them...

I would paint it 4E9 ASAP!

Found one... Think Im going to do it... But Im getting rid of fender flares and going with a black door ding strip and a lil more gloss...

I have been thinking the same- but with flat tan paint.

That's the one! It looks like a 'putty' color...looks damn good.

It is glossy, if I'd ever wash it. And it is Dune Beige, Toyota 416, same as early FJ40's, courtesy of it's PO, BKFJ40 on this board. And I'm 25% of the way through fender flare removal...

Hey, you should get ahold of Chris King (valkyrie610, i think) over at TOD. He's the one that painted Graham's FJC. It looks sweet, too.

That looks good! It looks like my fj60.

If money ever become no object to me, I am going this route. I am thinking the same color as the Humvees over in the desert.

Just got mine back from the paint shop, so I thought I'd raise this thread out of the ashes. "464 Beige" (supposedly). Turned out a little more yellowish than I expected, but still looks a LOT better than she did with the original rotted clearcoat & paint. Some of the basecoat was oxidized all the way to the primer underneath!

Should have painted the top white.

Very nice. I'm digging it!

ashooter, can you post a side pic? I really like the painted pillars.

This is the only other pic of her I have since the paint job. Sun is behind the truck so not the best.

This is the one that gave me the idea.

Coolest looking 80 I've ever laid eyes on!
