LeMans blue the same as Olds Viking blue?
« on: December 25, 2023, 09:11:09 PM »
Guys,
Need a bit of advice here on some colors:
Is Chevy's LeMans  blue the same as say, Mulsanne Blue, or Oldsmobile Viking Blue?
Thanks!
Just another T/A fanatic. Current lifelong projects:
1968 Olds 442 W-30
1969 Mustang Fastback w a Can-Am 494 (Boss 429)

Nope. Names are meaningless. Paint codes tell the story. Lemans-WA3962. Mul and Vik-WA4069

The names are just names. The same colors used across the car lines with different names. As stated,  the paint codes are what really matters, but who doesn't want to a Viking? Pillage and plunder!
