Ke 55 Mystery Colour Code

[MarginallySane]

Hey, I've been trying to find paint to respray my rolla in its original colour but I have run into a snag.

 

The colour/trim code in the engine bay dosent match up with anything

 

The code is : BH TH-FN

 

Stranger still the paint on the inner doors and floor (untouched by sun) dosent match up with any stock colour I can find. The previous owner described it as gold but its definitely not the stock gold from the pics I've seen. Ill upload a pic soon to show but yeah its just weird.

It looks like silver to me, so i did a quick google search and found this site which has all the Toyota paint codes, i used it for my ae71 as it was a few different shades.

 

The colour I found that matches the BH code is called silver cloud from 1979.

Thanks, nice be back on here and to be useful!

All the crap that keeps being asked on fb corolla pages shits me as its all on here already!

Things like "how do I put a 4age in my corolla?"

Haha yeah I bet that can be a pain (though I am guilty of such a thread) , I guess someone doing a complete step by step thing with a parts list ect is what theyre after to make it seem easier. I gave up a 4age conversion cause the one i have acess to is a fwd and it looks like too much effort to convert them to rwd. Plus the strut an brake upgrade 2 suit.
