I did find similar info specific to crew cabs in the data book, but not relative to the reg cab p/u. But it means the stuff existed, was in the system, and could have easily made it onto reg cabs. This is pretty intriguing... Anyhoo - best bet is probably to take it to a paint shop and have them color match it. The closest color (in 73-80 wording) I could find for it is called "sand" - but I believe yours isn't sand. Sure LOOKS like 71-72 parchment. Anyway, color match, even if it's faded, is maybe the best bet. Love the special paint combo, bet it looks great with that interior.
