I have it narrowed down to 3 colors:

1. Ford Sonic Blue (Gen 2 Ford Lightning stock color, bright blue)
2. Ford Spirit Blue (newer Ford color, bright blue)
3. Ford Deep impact Blue (newer ford color, dark blue)
4. Ford Lightning Blue (darker blue on new mustangs).

I DO NOT WANT THE DARKER BLUE TO BE MISTAKEN FOR A PURPLE TYPE COLOR.

I have it narrowed down to 2 of those colors, one bright, one dark. I wanted to see what you all thought.


'66 mustang coupe, with 2 white stripes.
here is what it looked like originally, before the restoration:
 
i liked the deep wengewood blue from katy's 2000 mountaineer. more of a greyish blue

Sonic Blue can appear very purple to me. It also is a bit cheap looking to me.

I would recommend DIB, or consider Midnight Blue from the 05/06 Ford GT. Not sure what it was called on anything else. It's very dark in overcast but ablaze in the sun or under lighting.
