looking for some pics and paint codes for blue mustangs. Not necessarily stock colors.
Thinking a medium to dark blue. Definitely darker than a grabber blue.
I know Aculpulco blue is a stock option but looking for other ideas. Please post pics and paint codes.
this will be my 4th restoration project, but first mustang and
will be a father/son project.
Thanks!!

Acapulco Blue looks great on these cars. My '67 is this color (not my car, but what it looked like when new):

My '66 was painted Deep Impact Blue (not yet assembled):

Well I made a last minute color change but happy with the results.
I didn’t want to hassle with the metal flake and pearl mica so had our local paint shop mix up dodge viper GTS blue without the metallic and pearl. I’m an average painter and didn’t want to risk tiger striping or modeling.
I wanted something a bit darker than the viper blue and expected the color would be darker without metallics it in but it actually came out way lighter.
we tinted it black and after a few attempts got what I think is a cool blue solid color. In the sun is really nice.
I’ll post the color formula when I get a chance in case someone stumbles on this thread one day.
thanks again for all the info. I’ll post the car when fully completed next month.
