Looking 4 Photo of Med. Regatta Blue Met. Color Truck

I'm possibly going to paint my old Ford and change the color. If anyone has a photo of a truck in Medium Regatta Blue Metallic I would love to see it. Color code on the door plate is either 7J, 7G, or 3E depending on the year. The factory paint code is 6096 or 6352 in some years. Thanks.

I looked in here thinking this was the color of mine until I realized MG is "Bright" Regatta Blue Metallic. Oh well, almost the same.. I guess I was hoping to see some others with a similar color.

Thanks for the pics. Here's a link that shows a color chip: Paint Chips 1985 Ford Truck

In this year it's coded as 7G and in the middle column. I think there are three different shades of Regatta blue in different model years.

It's nowhere near the color of that paint chip IRL. It may be a bit darker than my picture shows it to be (blame it on the camera) but it's actually pretty close.

Now hold on a minute. Our truck looks pretty close to the "Lt Regatta Blue" in the left column. I actually never looked at a paint code, maybe it's actually Light RB. I'll check on Monday.

If your truck's a '96 then here is a Paintref.com color page for it: Paint Chips 1996 Ford Truck

There are 3 truck exterior pages (7,8, and 9) with this one being page 8. You can scroll up above the paint chips and click on them. I think yours might be Portofino blue (XC) or Indigo (KT). On page 7 is another Indigo (KK). What ever the color is at least your truck looks good.

Ok, here it is officially. Should have looked in the first place. The picture I posted earlier was XC, Portofino Blue Metallic.
