FF/976 Nassau Blue Paint

[George D.]

Question for you paint guys:

Year Code Color

1967 976 Marina Blue
1966 976 Nassau Blue
1965 FF Nassau Blue

I know that 1967 Marina Blue (976) is "bluer" than 1966 Nassau Blue (976). The 1966 Nassau Blue is more "silver" than the Marina Blue for lack of a better description.

But what about 1965 Nassau Blue (FF)? Is it the identical color/paint formulation as the 1966 Nassau Blue (976)?

In 1962 the code for Nassau Blue was -914- I don't think it was available on the Corvette, but here's how it looks on the Impala-

Yes, according to the original formulation numbers at www.corvettepaintcodes.com.

Thanks for your quick reply. I thought so but wasn't sure. And thanks for the link to the paint site - I've bookmarked that.
