Looking For a 1968 Skyview Blue Pic

Guys,
I am going to be re-painting my 1972 Cheyenne Super. It is currently Med. Blue/White. I am thinking about changing the color to a lighter blue, specifically 1967 Light Blue. Does anyone have any repaint pictures of this color? Possbily with a white cab upper or even the blue/white combo? Thanks.

Do you mean the Ford color Skyview blue or the Chevy color Light Blue (code 507)?

P.S. I don't know how close this is, but here is a repainted in somewhere in the ballpark, although not two-tone.

See toward the bottom of this link for a Skyview Blue/ white Bronco:

For what it's worth, here is an original Light Blue/white 68, if that helps.

That's pic shows it perfect. Don't know that I'll go that direction now and will definately not go in the direction of the restored Bronco. Thanks for the response!
