Does anybody out there have for a fact the orginal factory installed Med Blue upholstry in their 1970 Chevelle? I'm not looking for the cloth but the all vinyl. No guessing. If you are not for sure please don't respond. What I would like is to see is a picture of it. Colors from aftermarket are all over the place. If you could post a picture or PM me one I would be most grateful. More than one would also be good to compare.

Please Help.. I no this is an older post, but I am having the same problem. I have a 70 Chevelle Astro blue. Blue Int. The samples i recieved from PIU/Legendary are not the same,(by alot)!! They both say there color is correct for that year. Have you figured who is correct? Thank You

are you trying to compare samples to 42 year old seats that have had the suns UV and someones dirty a$$ on them? I dont think they will match.

if your a picky person. go with the Legendary stuff for a 70

I am not trying to match the old seats, your right they are bad shape and faded..I do plan to go with legendary, they have a really nice product but the sample the sent me is a very very light blue almost gray. The sample a received from pui is a bright med blue, not just a different shade but a completely different color. When I called both company’s they said it matches the org factory chart perfect. Just trying to get as close to org as possible and figure who’s chart is right. Thanks
I have a body shop and I mixed the code u posted 0% gloss#13966 ppg and is very close to the pui med blue (a med bright blue)
