I picked up a tailgate froma 67 CST, and I was wondering if this is an original color for 1967? The paint looks original to me, just have not seen many dark blue. I added the chrome handle, by the way. Thanks in advance.

Re: Original paint color for 1967?
Looks like it could be 511 dark aqua poly(metallic dark blue).

Re: Original paint color for 1967?
It looks to me like it was/is the 508 (ditzer 12409) Dark Blue. The tailgate appears, in the pictures, to have been touched up above the trim strip. Below and inside don't look metalic. Here is a '69 in Dark Blue same codes numbers. How do the ends look?

Re: Original paint color for 1967?
thanks guys, i am satisfied the paint is original. below the trim and inside have not been hit with rubbing compound yet, so it looks dull. the metallic really came out with a little compound and some elbow grease along the top. the gate is laser straight not even a ding on it.
