Arrow Blue 67-72s

Thinking of painting the 71 SWB 4x4 a color of blue...so post some pics of your 67-72s that are blue so I can get some ideas.If you have the paint code or name of the paint color that would help too

Re: Blue 67-72s

Although I have no idea what color it is.......well, it's blue....., here is one I'm sure you have seen before. It was kinda close to the Dodge Atlantic Blue on the Ram trucks.

K10,that looks like a K30 to me
I think Im gonna go w/ a darker blue.
And yes,there is a variety on the 71.The hood is off a 71 with the medium blue and the fender on the passenger side is some blue color off a 69 4x4.I need to see what color it was on the 69 4x4...The cab is also a medium blue color....for the most part
Oh,and nice trucks guys

Picture's not the brightest.

Dunno what the color is called (Bought it this way).

It's metallic blue of some kind with a clear metalflake topccoat.
