Google "Tacoma Cream" and all sorts of stuff comes up. Ford used it for pin stripe and wheel color through the model A years but not as a body color. Maybe later, I don't know.

I believe Ken and rotorwrench are correct, Tacoma Cream is a accent color only, not a body color. It all depends if you want to stay with original body colors or paint it your way.

From my experience black is the best but a bear to care for. Been there once too often. I will admire YOUR black car.

at the end of the day its your car so its whatever floats your boat you own it you drive it so you have to enjoy it and screw the mob mate of mine owned a panel shop and had a realy good paint system where you took a photo of the car and could load different colors and stripes etc [much like windows paint box] and was excellent for color matching especially with custom colors unfortunately he has passed on and i cant remember whose system it was but the emblem was a multicolored macaw [might be worth checking out your local paint shops especially those that do custom work]

Our 38 conv. is Desert Sand, it don't show dust much, we also have a black 38 coupe, it gets dusty under the cover, I'm sure 36 has a tan color, just my 2 cents
