Looks like it might be the dark blue metallic.......Edit: scratch that, didn't come in 88, looks like it might just be called dark blue.

Do you have a VIN plate on the door/doorjamb?

 

yeah it should be on like the right side of your door jam.. usually a 3 digit number... then maybe you could google it or something

 

The link from above has all (99%) of the colors and codes.

 

for the codes on that link i think i need to know the name of the color.
The paint code is not, for some reason, on the door jamb.

What is on the door jamb, nothing?
What about the firewall, as described in the other thread?

 

its weird, theres a plate on the jamb with the GVW, capacities and VIN, but there doesn't seem to be any 3 digit color code. im stumped? ill go check the firewall right now.

 

Take a picture of the plates you find and post up.

 

i think the paint code is in the VIN.

 

The paint/trim/axle/trans codes are on a plate under the hood, attached to the firewall on ALL toyota vehicles to 1988. From 1989 on, they are on the drivers door, or B-pillar.

 

Roger to the rescue!

The paint code can be found WITH the VIN, but it is NOT in the VIN

 

yup, id call it blue

 

good to know DC. i tried finding the duplicolor scratch stuff at autozone and i think on the back it has you match a section from the vin. from what ive read on past posts though i would go with everything DC says lol
