All I know is if you painted your truck medium blue (basecoat/clearcoat) that's what it would look like.

Thank you! I found him on instagram, really like this blue, kinda reminds me of the factory medium blue.

So is it factory medium blue?
Anyone know the paint code?

[BMERDOC]

Not sure if that's medium blue because of the lighting. This is what 506 medium blue metallic looks like. I've studied to death because that was the original color of my truck and it'll go back that color.

Its Grabber Blue off of the Ford Mustang

501 was the GM code for Medium Blue. My how monitors and/or people's perception of color varies. Showing a truck to get an exact match of color isn't an accurate way to obtain a color. That metallic truck looks great...great color too. But certainly no where near the same color as truck in question. Ford Grabber Blue? Not on my computer. That's a way brighter shade. This shade is far more classy. Grabber Blue is pretty much the color of a Ford engine,but maybe brighter. The best way is getting in touch with the owner and hoping they have the code.Looks like that's possible now thanks to info from Junorocket. Good job!

Looks like a Grabber blue or Petty blue to me.

[fast&low]

No not grabber blue definitely not

[BMERDOC]

In 67/68 the paint code for Med. Blue Poly was 506. In 69 or 70 it changed to 501. In 69/70 non metallic Medium blue was 510. I think we can agree that its not a metallic color. Here is a pic that claims to be 71 510 medium blue. Looks like the truck in question is a little darker but being dark outside, lighting, age of paint, bc/cc v. single stage are all factors. Too many variables to know for sure.

I had talked to Grady last year and I thought that he told me it was Grabber Blue

[leddzepp]

Definitely looks like pincher blue to me.

[special-K]

Man,that picture looks nowhere near Grabber blue to me. It's shades darker. Like I said,monitor differences. Can't argue with the owner,but these mustangs sure look different on my same monitor

501 was the 70 1/2 code for Medium Blue,then 510. Poly in a GM paint color name means metallic

Wish it was mine.
