I just recently aquired a 1963 F100 Unibody from my dad (Thanks Dad!) and I would like to restore it to its original color. Right now it is red, and my research leads me to believe that the paint code "Y" is glacier blue. I am wondering two things. 1. what exactly does Glacier Blue look like and 2. Is my research accurate?
I am VERY new at restoration, and luckily the truck is in very good condition! (I drove it from Alaska to Arizona in July and had zero trouble; mechanical or otherwise!) Gotta love the way they made trucks back then!

that's what i found, too. Glacier Blue really isn't that pretty is it! Is there value in returning the truck to its original manufacturer state? Right now, the truck is red with white pin stripes. It looks ok, but still needs a paint job. Red is so common.
