You're shooting in the dark. There are several different shades of blue, and they all have a different paint code. Try this, Go to several different NEW car lots, find the color you're looking for, write down the year, make, and model of the car and go to a local body shop. They would have the code for you, or just ask the dealer to give you the paint code. My '67 is a 1998 BMW Blue, I actually liked a 1997 Ford truck blue also, but I didn't want to explain that to every person asking about it.
