I saw a 54 bug a few weeks backs that had a different kind of blue.He told me the name of it but can't remember the name of it for the life of me.Its a color that is original to VW's in the early days.I want to say Okrasa blue,but I know that's a type of motor. Any body know where I can go for Vw colors?
It's not bright like reg blue or a Neptune,not even a sky.
It's a deep blue,my wife describes it almost like a jean blue.
Any help would be appreciated,thanx!

L37 - Medium Blue?
L36 - Azure Blue?
L35 - Metallic Blue?

54? If it wasn't a standard than most likely L227 stratos silver (also referred to as stratos silver blue metallic)

From zozo's link http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/paintcodestype1.php
you see it on a fair amount of 54's and early 55's

L436 is Indigo Blue - the color of jeans.. maybe that's it?
