Paint code

Can anyone tell me what color blue this is on this truck. I am thinking of painting my daughters 75 this color just flipping the blue and white. Thanks in advance.

Brad, What identifies that as a 94/95? Was that color only available those two years?

The crease in the bottom of the door is one give away. It signifies the door has side impact beam which is '94 up.
Unless of course, the door is not original.

The third brake light is another 94 up item on the trucks.

Nice color combination. I can see why you’d want to paint the ‘75 like that.

94+ has the 3rd brake light
95- has the moulding behind the rear tire
9/95+ has the small crease at the bottom of the door(I cannot see clear enough if it has the crease)

You have good eyes if you can see the crease

There looks to be a faint line. More so on the left corner, but maybe that is a gouge?
After clearing 50 your eyes can start doing weird things

What about the tailgate panel?
Didn't the last couple years of OBS trucks have a Ford oval on the driver's side -vs- the Ford script on the right?
Maybe I'm thinking of the HD trucks in 97.

I will. Have to replace the exhaust manifold on th drivers side then it’s off to the body shop. Here’s the before. Have all new body panels for it. Getting them welded in. The red is going to be blue and the white is going to be done in Oxford White.
