I don't believe so. They have completely different paint codes from PPG and DuPont. Reference is http://www.corvettepaintcodes.com

You can also go to TCP Global website and look at their paint chips in the Vintage Car Paint Library.

Another recent thread covered the differences completely. Just search for 58 silver blue vs 64 silver blue. Be patient, it's about 20 threads down from the top!

Thanks. I was confused because there is a thread about two-tones in the C3 section that I thought I was replying to. Jim

Jim, no problem, we're not THAT bad here. Just can't pass up the opportunity for some chain-yanking! Once again, sweet ride! I may have to visit the C-3 section to learn more about it.
