I am restoring a 65 coupe, silver blue with a blue/white interior. I am looking for a source for the light blue paint on the door panels. I tried the Scott Drake light blue (L5748) and found out it sprays Silver... not blue. I also tried the Scott Drake medium blue for the windshield trim and radio grill and the white for the dash both of these are good matches to the original color. BUT the light blue they sell for the door panel is not even close... its not blue. I had the original blue color on the door when I started and it was not silver... it really was light blue. The outside of the car is silver blue.
Does anyone know where I can get a correct light blue for the door panel metal?
