That color is extremely close to L360 Sea Blue like my '66. According to the archives under paint/upholstery, Sea Blue is listed under '58, however the color sample shown for Capri Blue looks darker than in you pic. |
I have a July of 58 rag that is registered as a 59 and has been since new. I am having one hell of a time trying to find the correct color that was originally on the car. I have all the little pieces like tail light housings, ash tray cover, dash grills, and popes nose that all still retain the factory paint. It looks like L 335 Capri but it looks nothing like the one pictured here. What color primer or base did you use?
This is my color
Out in the sun.
Both these pictures are inside lighting. |

My L456 (Ruby Red) '63. Surprised that there aren't more of 'em in this thread...I always thought it was a very common color. Maybe not, though...
