What color to paint... I think I have the blues... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I decided that I am going to do as much of the body work as I can this winter and paint this spring... I like to plan ahead and have been torn between gloss black and a metallic blue.... i have finally decided on a metallic blue to paint the truck however there are so many blues..... I was wondering if anyone had photos of different blues and the paint codes to see... Thanks in advance

Longbed, mine is a Dodge blue, Intense Blue Pearl. Pretty common on the Dodge trucks. Toyota's Speedway Blue is nice, too.

The dark blue from '67-69 does it for me, code 508. No clear to peel or metalic to match, The Ditzer number is 12409. BTW, not my truck just one I was prudent enough to walk away from.

If you must have a metalic how about these? Imperial Blue WA403P on the '10 Camaro. Navy Blue WA352E on my '99 Camaro SS. Laser Blue WA218M on my '06 VUE.
