Win a custom sticker: What color to paint a big block SOA FJ-60? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

helocat · 06-03-2003, 03:19 PM

So W’ is finishing up a FJ-60 that is to be sold. For now it is a mix match of mostly brown parts, and he plans on having it painted in a friend’s body shop. So what color should he have it painted? The plan is to sell it, so the color needs to be one most would like.

This thing is SOA with a 454 and a SM456 sitting on 35’s, so what ever color fits this. I will try to grab a before photo next time I am out at his shop.

If he chooses your color and you are the first person to recommend that color (One color per person) you get a custom vinyl sticker with your trucks name on it. (Or what ever you want cut out of a 1 color 6”x23” area)

green

black

yooper · 06-03-2003, 03:22 PM

Dreamsicle is the only choice - two-tone orange and white like an FJ55.

wngrog · 06-03-2003, 03:23 PM

would be good, then Butch would buy it.

A good color that the majority will like...................................

Hmmm

Pearl White, interesting yet not too flashy, looks good in sunlight and rain, stays cooler in the summer and doesnt show pinstriping as easily as darker colors.

mantis · 06-03-2003, 03:27 PM

3rd world tan/khaki is the only way to go with big 60s.

kling-on · 06-03-2003, 03:34 PM

a nice red would sell fast ....

.... and would add 20hp

there is a 80 series color called Desert Dune.....it's dang sharp IMOP. But IMOP white doesn't look the best on 60/2 for some reason.

Some of my favorite 60's were blue

What color is the interior??

That makes a big difference.

What color are the door jams? It would be easiest to match those. If they are all different colors then:

Dark grey to sell. There's a very nice 80 series grey color.

Flat black to keep. DP90 2 part primer would do just fine.

fj40john · 06-03-2003, 04:25 PM

VERY dark blue...i think it is a stock toyota color...comes on the tundras...and celicas too i think. I LOVE that color...want to paint the 40 in it, but paint is NOT a high priority.

LandCroozer · 06-03-2003, 04:26 PM

3 tone color scheme:

Bondo, Primer and Rust.
