So your looking for 1968 code 507 lt. Blue. (Ditzler paint number 12846) And 1968 code 526 Ivory/Off-white. (Ditzler paint number 8290) A note on the 521 paint code: In 1967, 68 and 69 the 521 White was Ditzler paint number 8080 In 1970, 71 and 72 the 521 White was Ditzler paint number 2185 in 1967/68 521 White was not used for the two tones in 1969 through 1972 the 521 White was used for the two tones. But the 1969 521 White was Ditzler paint number 8080 where as the 1970 -72 521 white was Ditzler paint number 2185 As far as seeing a truck with the correct Lt. Blue and Ivory color combo, the truck in post #3 is correct.

Re: Help with paint code
Here are some links to some 507 trucks
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=450641 (disregard the 72 in post #4) http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...2&postcount=16 http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...75&postcount=3 You can send a PM to Mr. Chevrolet, He just painted his truck 507 Blue. Pic of it in link below. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...90&postcount=4 Here is a link to his build thread http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=604414 Here is a thread where another member tried and found the right color for the 507 lt. blue color http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=586964 The color name doesn't matter. There were several color names for every color. Sales had a name, Marketing had a name, Gm paint had a name, Ditzler, Sherwin Williams etc. had a name. What's important is the code and the year. On the 507 Lt. blue code, it was used in 1967, 1968 and 1969 for our years and also in 1964 1965, 1966 on Chevrolet trucks. Here are the paint numbers for different companies GM = WE5120 Ditzler/PPG = 12846 DuPont = 4537L, 4537, 93-78387 Sherwin Williams = 8659 Chrysler = DT8569 Hope this helps.
