Question What type of paint

1982 Toyota SR5 Longbed 4x4 **66K original miles**

I want to paint my Trailfinder 2 with the same color of the truck that is in the link. What is my best choice of paint to match this truck? Could I use automotive touch up paint? Forgive me for being a rookie and not knowing .
Thanks

I like to use this site, when I want an exact match. They work well on hard bodies with a good primer, and look fantastic. A little expensive, but if your looking for accuracy, it's worth it.

Spray Paint | AutomotiveTouchup

Duplicolor Touch-up spray will also work. Be sure to prime the body first.

You could try getting this and prime the body first and use lacquer after

I wound up using duplicolor paint and it turned out very nice.

Looks good. Some smooth wet sanding and clear coat, will really shine it up.
