I am rebuilding a '70 FJ40 for my son stationed in Afganastan, I would like to use the same color as the tan paint in this web site. Its a flat, non glossy paint. Any ideas?

It isn't paint (see below). I would look to military colors. Mobile Paint makes a desert camo that is pretty close to a flat tan like the Icon. Do a search on camo paint and you'll find a flat tan.

BODY SURFACE COATINGS
The ICON is finished in a Teflon polyester hybrid super durable Cardinal powder coat originally conceived for exterior industrial architectural uses then developed specifically for the ICON. Each panel is hand finished before assembly, then the underside of the main body and fenders plus inside floor surfaces are coated in a heat cured polyurea coating for reduction of vibration and heat transfer as well as the surface environment. All finished require minimal maintenance with Fantastic / 50% water, never needs waxing and survives many a harsh trail.

The proprietary ICON finish is available in six standard colors (custom color option available);
Rocky Mountain Gray
Mocha Tan
Mayan Sun Orange,
Quartz White
Spruce Green
Slate Blue

Desert Tan paint

That paint is perfect I'll start looking for Krylon Fusion Camouflage paint in kakhi tan and black. Thanks so much.

For what it is worth I used a flat black paint a while ago on an old truck and it quickly rusted through. I wouldn't use anything but gloss from now on even though I like the look of flat better.
