I've found that this blue tone it appears in the Genuine Lacques catalog
that goes up to 1955:

http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/lit/52_55_color_book.php

It also appears (no example of an unit painted like this) on the site

http://www.brezelfenstervereinigung.de

I suppose that this used the same source

but not on the 1959 edition:

Maybe there is another name/ code for the same color?

There are only a few convertibles known with this colour, I heard of two ones. If you search, you will find some pics of one here on thesamba.
Unfortunately I have to sell a convertible in this colour (stated by certificate but now primed and without any remains of paint) for the family of a friend who is in a vegetative state now.

Many thanks. I have just bought a 1953 convertible in this color. This is why I am asking. I have only found pictures of a very original 53 convertible with two tone paint navy blue and light gray.

Would love to see more examples of navy blue convertibles

thanks again
