Re: HELP!!! Blue two tone pics needed
Hey that looks just like mine.... besides the primer in the usual places... Ya'know above the fenders Rocker panels. Although im thinking about taking it black and green two tone. And at the same time, Until it gets warm enough its going to be black with gray two toned primer. Something i havent seen yet.

Re: HELP!!! Blue two tone pics needed
Change it up a little. Do a dark blue like the factory color with a Pearl White. Audi has a great looking pure pearl white, not as yellow as GM White Diamond.

Re: HELP!!! Blue two tone pics needed
you have a great idea i am doing the exact thing almost, im doing stock light blue poly W/ cadillac pearl white. unless if you want dark blue i really like ford shadow blue met. with gray or white accent. the cool thing about shadow blue met is it comes in different bases so it can be lighter or darker. ive also seen the shadow blue on a chevy with a lighter blue in the middle.

Re: HELP!!! Blue two tone pics needed
In 1969 the paint code 53 was called glacier blue for camaro, mystic blue for pontiac, other gm brands called 53 different names. The paint is mixed in PPG Global line of paints. I went to several car shows and looked at paint on cars and trucks before deciding on this color. Color charts don't give you as good a sample as the real thing.
