68 Paint Formula

I have a 68 convertible which is about to be sprayed back to the original Le Mans Blue code 976, unfortunately here in Australia I am not having much luck finding the paint formula for this color. We have tried a number of paint sellers and when the put the code in it comes up with Millie Miaglia Red which is from a 1973 obviously they swapped the codes around a bit. Can anyone supply the formula so we can get the Le Mans Blue mixed. A lot of the paint sellers are closed here over the Christmas & New Year break.

The ppg code is 13549. On the ppg system ou have to put in 1968 with the code. The 1973 red will come up under code 976, also.
