i want to paint my truck the same blue as it was originally. i had a quart of blue paint made a few years ago,it was supposed to be the same color! now i,m not sure exactly what year cab i have,because of truck having an accident and cab was replaced. i,m really not good with paint and designs! so i wanted the same colors as originally. i kind of figured the tacoma cream. but the blue i have is to pale,looks like a rustoluim color! the truck was a dark blue . any help with a color code appriciated. the color i find that looks like it is lincoln bristol blue ,but my paint guy says he dosn,t no what it is! now this is all over the phone. paint is going to be a cheap urethane paint. and i already wasted 70 $ on the first quart.

 

 

Try this link, you can click on different years to look at colors: 1946 Color Codes - Ford Paint Cross-Reference If you click on any of the G B Y letters you can see images of painted vehicles to help you decide.

 

Don't know if it was a factory color for your year truck but I've always been partial to Washington Blue with Tacoma Cream accents. JMO.

 

It looks like the Lyon blue in the 1940 chip
