What's my original Paint?

Here's my New Burb:


Here's some hints of the ORIG color:

Here you can see the White insert color (sorta)







Anyone know what colors those are? Baby Blue and white?

Paint codes?

Thinking that Mr. Blue should be the original color again, once the body work is done.

Thanks!
Nick

You can find most any paint code searching this site, links that will point you to sites like this one. See if you can get a code out of the glove box to start with, should go pretty quick if its still there.

Yeah, so far I have not been able to get the glove box open, but I know there is no build sheet there (looked when I bought it).

So I don't know what the paint code is, was hoping someone would be "Oh I know this, I just bought some..."

From Here I found this

From that chart you posted I'm pretty sure it is Skyline blue and not Catalina or Hawaiian blue.
