Rustoleum spruce green

I like the greens.....the tans seem overdone to me....all though I do LOVE them and want a tan one.

as far as this thread topic....Tan seems the most recognized, cruiser, safari, bad off road vehicle associated color so I would go dune biege.

Looking for all of your wonderful opinions on color. Getting colser on painting the 69, and was going to go fashion green, but since this will be one that I sell, I may be looking at another color.

if you would like to throw a pic in thats cool too.

Just MHO.... (humble)

Your neighbors must trip out when they see that out front. Where did you get that seat? Recaro?

jmdaniel, nice lookin' 40. You got any pics without the top? I'm interested in seeing the effect of the matching roll bar. Thanks.

Thank you, and no I don't. Sorry.

The seat is from Belgium, (I think) Custom cover from JC Penny, The mounts are in there natural form, made from Gravity.


Its better when they see me drive by..... But in my 'hood most just raise their Bud, and wave..... - to be expected....

Olive Brown

Is olive brown a Toyota color?? Or is the a derivative of Olive green? It does look more brown than mine. Mine is Toyota #653.
Does Olive brown have a code #?

I kinda like the seafoam green. Mine used to be before it was painted orange. The dash is still seafoam and I have only seen a few cruisers in that color but I thought they were cool looking.

Red is a close second. When they have shiny new paint I think the red cruisers look great. Actually, a red cruiser is what started me thinking I wanted one. I was at a best buy when I was like 15 with my family and saw a red cruiser getting a CD player installed in the bay... it just kinda sealed the deal for me. I had already been looking pretty hard at cruisers (my dad had one before I was born) but was open to pretty much any 4x4 at the time... seeing a really prettty one up close kinda did it for me.

That has to be in the top 5 of best plates ever for a 40.....

Since I could not do a factory Toyota beige due to California environmental BS, I went with Sherwin Williams 42095 beige....

My favorites are dune biege very closely followed by rustic green then that smurf blue; that said I would probably be happy with any of the factory 40 series & 55 Cruiser colors.

I loe the 40 in Beige, under this is originally Olive which I really like as well

OLIVE - Best factory color IMO for a military-derived vehicle. Highlights the white roof and bezel better than beige.

SMURF BLUE - Probably the most distinctive Land Cruiser color. You are least likely to be mistaken for a Jeep with this one.

WHITE - Most of these rigs don't have air conditioning. This is the only color that makes PRACTICAL sense unless you live in Alaska, or are a cold blooded reptile.

RED - the color of optimism. Dude! It's not a go-fast vehicle. Get over it!

MUSTARD - the most 1970's color of the bunch. Like the Smurf Blue, a very distinctive LC color. . .but probably in less of a good way.

PALE BLUES AND GREENS - Pastels???? On one of the most Y-chromosome vehicles ever made??? Seriously???

For non factory colors, I've seen one that was done in British racing green. Suffice to say it worked extremely well.

Anyone familiar with the color of the warthog 4x4 from Halo? Sort of an OD variant.
