2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Which BLUE is it?

[TPCDrafting]

I'm trying to figure out what the color name is for a specific Dodge blue color. I'm talking about the dark royal blue or navy blue or midnight blue color I see running around. The problem is I'm having an old car rebuilt and repainted and I've told the guy I wanted Dodge Patriot blue, but I'm not sure thats the right color. Anybody have a pic of the blue I'm talking about? What's it called. All I need is a name and my auto body guy can order it?

Patriot Blue is what the color our Durango is.

That's it!!! Ok, I did give the guy the right color. The Mrs is going to be excited, after all it is her car. A '74 Super Beetle, it should look really good. Mega bonus points for me!! Bombs away!



Thanks Gitch

Glad to help ya get the brownie points.



I love that color, especially when it's clean. It's almost like having a black car. The dirt really shows up.

It'll be mostly a sunny Sunday car and she'll likely use it when the roads get really snowy and slick. I think the Germains had 'snowmobile' in mind when they designed them things. We plan to keep it clean instead of letting it rust away. Her folks bought it new in '74 so now it's kind of a keepsake to her, a money pit to me.

Montego blue is a dark navy metallicy blue too.
