I found a paint code for 57 - 58 Chevy blue on the Internet so I had my local Akzo Nobel paint distributor mix up 6 quarts. It's called Tartan Turquoise. My original color looked like it had more of a greenish/blue cast to it, but I love the new color because it is so bright blue. I painted the upper & lower grille mounting panels to see how it looked. Take a look. That should make it stand out in a parking lot.

The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself." - John Stuart Mill (1806 - 1873)
