that looks pretty close to mine when its clean but its starten to fad.

that 4runner would look cool with that tan on it:banger:

Im going with all black:P

If you are looking to rattle can it get some rustoleum in the color of Sand, its a little darker i think.

2DoorRunner 05-19-2010 06:31 PM

Oh i have always had a soft spot for that green. Try it out!

1981 yota 05-19-2010 06:35 PM

i love it i saw one thread on i think 79s or someting but its flat black truck with john deer green rims i liked it

2DoorRunner 05-19-2010 06:45 PM

Yeah i saw that, looked good. And you cant beat black wheels, makes your tires look bigger! lol

I have an 82 same color as yours and I am going to paint it Landcruiser dune biege code #416
The colors are similar and I can get away with using that color and it blending with the door and engine bay.

1981 yota 05-19-2010 06:48 PM

the only problem with john deer green is cle elum is a small town and its pretty unique

lol i say go with the tannish, thats my favorite yota color, are you gonna do it yourself or take it somewhere?

1981 yota 07-05-2010 09:27 PM

85gijunk4x4 07-05-2010 09:31 PM

1981 yota 07-05-2010 09:42 PM

85gijunk4x4 07-05-2010 09:50 PM

1981 yota 07-05-2010 09:54 PM
