[soujiro]

I want to paint my 79 FJ40, but I want the color of this FJ40 that I found in a blog:

Can someone help me please?

That's not a factory FJ40 color. Thank god!

Your best bet would be to ask the folks at Kaymar.

Color

looks like Ash Gold from 68 Camaro my best friend had! I love the color!

Computer screens are different...it shows up as more of a pewter to me.

If it's a stock Toyota color, I'd guess Antique Sage Pearl, available on 1997 FZJ-80 Land Cruisers with the 40th Anniversary Package.

Take a look at Project X in the Hard Core section. Gary painted his 45 this color.

Looks kinda like gun metal gray on my box....

Yeah, I am gonna go with Garth, it looks very much like an Antique Sage Pearl which is 1B2

there is definitely a pea soup green tint to the color, look at the hood.

this fj40 was at the sema show in vegas:

someone posted another angle in this thread: https://forum.ih8mud.com/40-55-series-tech/433888-roof-top-color.html

 

[twoyotas]

a better question: aren't FJCs ugly enough? what is with THAT paint job?

 

[soujiro]

Thanks guys, I think is a pea soup green, but Antique Sage Pearl is a great color too. Someone knows the Pea soup green color code? (or someplace to get it)

Gun Metal

I've personally inspected that fj40 in Carpenteria, CA at the local summer car show. It is virtually flawless and sort of a gun metal or metallic silver. The lights in Vegas don't do it justice. i believe the truck was built by Man-a-fre in Simi Valley because it is on their website in some of the 4+ pictures. I'm more partial to the stock colors also, but non the less, a georgeous and well thougtht out cruiser.

Everyone else, don't be a hater until you've seen it in person!!

Looks pretty darn good to me

I think I saw that fj in the latest edition of 4wd toyota at SEMA show. I thought it was a silver/pewter color.

If only an editor of that magazine was on this forum.......

That Fj is sick......

 

[twoyotas]

@bakocruiser - ahh - lighting makes sense to the green tint. by your description, I bet it looks super sharp in person (please note, I was not hatin' on the green tint, just trying to describe it from the several pics on different sites, I like green). That FJC still looks terrible, though

Howdy!

I don't think this is the same one that was at the Kaymar booth. Is that the one you were thinking of?

Here is the picture, from the thread on the first post, and yes the kaymar booth.

In 4wd Toyota Mag, it appears a goldish silver color.

Found some other pics on their website:

[beaufort-fj60]

maybe a FJ62 Warm Gray Poly, Code 153, or FJ60, Gun Metal Gray, Code 8B4

Whatever the color it was nicely done and I can´t help liking a well done well cared for cruiser.
