Need some help! Pictures of blue and white trucks

I can't decide which blue to use and what white combo. I think I have narrowed it down between 1972 Medium Blue and 1972 Dark Blue with a white roof and white stripe in the middle. Does any one have good pictures of both these blues with some white? I am going for a very restored look, so I want to used a 1972 correct color if possible.

Any pictures or thoughts would be most appreciated!!!

Re: Need some help! Pictures of blue and white trucks

Here's mine. The blue is not a GM color. It's custom mixed. GM has a similar dark blue but mine's not quite as dark. You can see a Chevy S-10 in the right hand corner. This blue is a little darker.

Re: Need some help! Pictures of blue and white trucks

I know you want to stay stock but I thought I would show you a nice color I once saw on a 72. It is called Cobalt Pearl Blue and if I could park in a garage daily, I would have my 68 painted this color.

This is the way I am leaning. Looks so good!

Does anybody have a pic of this color scheme in a slightly lowered truck - 2/4 drop?

Hawaiian (Medium) Blue / Frost White in the Western two tone combination is the way to go

Cobalt and saphire are the colors that I am going to paint mine, if I ever get that far.

This is the dark blue I think, but very faded. Check the SPID in the glove box and tell me what she says.
