Hello all,

The attached photo is from a 1968 sales catalog. Does anyone recognize the color. I think it’s either Marina Blue or Diamond Blue but I could be totally wrong.

Thanks for any help.

1968 Type 3 would be Diamond Blue. Check the technical tab at the top of the page for paint and upholstery color charts for most models.

The catalog that you have is dated 1967 but is for the 1968 models.
Questionable ...
Type 3 Paint Color
1965 - 1967 Baltic Blue L539
1968 - 1970 Diamond Blue L50B
