PPG color code for 68 Lemans blue?
Can someone please advise or confirm for me that the PPG color for 68 LeMans blue is 2083? I'm trying to get the color as correct as possible.

Hi AW,
Try googling Colours Inc.
They're the people my ppg paint came from and may be able to help with verifing your code.

Just to add to the confusion- several years ago when I painted my 69 LeMans Blue my shop used PPG and I was told that they had either 3 or 5 different shades available. Dupont had either 3 or 5 to choose from- I just can't remember which was which. I selected the middle one, figuring it would be safe. It came out very nicely but I have no idea what the other choices would have looked like in comparison except that the tone would have been either lighter or darker. I bring this up so you're prepared if the body shop mentions it. Good luck.
