most toys in the 80's seemed to be brown. Camrys, corollas, cressidas etc. Lots of those used to be running around here so i always associate faded brown paint jobs as the toyota colours

That's what I was thinking... just strip the rust off first.

Britain got "british" racing green, France "French racing blue" [a very attractive shade imo], Germany "German racing silver" and Italy "Italian racing red" [now commonly called Ferrari red]. Other nations where generally assigned white so far as I know...

edit: as for toyota I would say it is red since that is the colour used on all their signs/ad copy.
