Freaking paint code

Where is it at? Don't tell me on the drivers door pillar either - it is not on there I have 4 85-89 trucks sitting here and not a damn one has a paint code on its little plaque. Toyota had like 12 shades of red back then too - and obcourse the truck i am painting now is one of those shades.

According to this Toyota VIN info webpage:

http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/ToyVIN.shtml

... the VIN plates for vehicles prior to 1989 is located in the engine compartment (on the firewall).
