Paint name & code

[Disco]

Does anyone know what colors these are? The darker one I have seen called Hawaiian Blue and Medium Blue. I believe the lighter color is simply Light Blue.

I believe you are correct.

I'm saying that sample truck is about a '78; looking in the generic info packet:

www.gm.com/content/dam/company/no_search/heritage-archive-docs/vehicle-information-kits/chevrolet-trucks/1978-Chevrolet-Truck.pdf

It shows 23U as "Hawaiian Blue" and 20L as "Lite Blue".

If you want the specific paint recipe (ie, "WA number") you'll have to research your manufacturer of choice (Dupont or whomever).

Sweet. I’ve seen build sheets like that before, but this is the first one that has Hawaiian blue labeled medium in parenthesis. I’ve only seen one or the other.

The sample is supposed to be a 75 according to the sales listing, but the target truck (mine) is a 78. These are the colors mine came in. Looking for down the road when she gets fresh paint.

If it's a 75 it's got a later hood on it (with the bump at the front).

Through some reverse image searching I was able to find the actual sale listing for that truck, it’s a bit of a hodgepodge.

76 K20 with a 454… 77-80 door panels, 79-80 hood, fuel doors, and the VIN plate has been removed and reattached at some point with regular rivets.

Here is the listing

Lol. Regardless, this is to OE color scheme for my Big 10, and I plan to return her one day to her original beauty.

@Termite_Delight we thought about exchanging the lite blue for white. It’s a tough choice because on one hand, the factory color combo wasn’t bad, but on the other, blue and white is iconic.
