Light blue matelic 1985 chevy code 21

Teal Pearl or Cobalt Pearl, goes with any secondary or as a solid…

I like The Spray Source, even just for color searches. And I actually have a 49 Dodge like the first 2 shown here, in Cub Cadet Beige/Cobalt Pearl… Pattern was actually 1951 or 1952 only “Spring Special”.

Ralph (85 C10 swb) was the odd red over white 85 only 2 tone. White on a Square is basic boring Polar White, add a bunch of pearl to it. Your offset color, regardless of what blue you choose? I’d personally run a heavy blue glitter in it, bury the truck in clear, or a mixed metallic base, candy cobalt mid coat, again, bury the finished job in clear. Painted a LOT of streetrods and motorcycles over the last 40 years, started painting at 14, uncle owned a custom shop…

If you’re looking for medium blue that pops in the sun, the ‘81 Code 30 Nordic Blue (my stock color) is really nice. Not too dark in the shade, but with the little metallic in it, the sun lights it up a bit.

But if he runs “Nordic” he’ll have to Viking it out…
Actually… fender badges off a 50s/60s Chevy “Viking” (medium duty, think C60 in SB speak) and some knotwork pinstriping at the color break… Damn…

Guess I’d best break out my stencils and a paint marker, see if it would work… Have a junk C60 I can practice on…
