I see you own your own body shop any tips you can give me when I speak with the paint and body guy so I can sound educated lol. What is the most important thing that I should ask him?
Cris give me a call 708-430-4411. It's easier to talk on the phone...

I didn't see it mentioned, but colors vary quite a bit from monitor to monitor so I would make sure to see it in person before committing. I'm sure you also know that the color used underneath (primer etc.) can make it look different as well.

The website the original image comes from is called www.wormol.com. It says my IP is blocked, maybe because I tried to view the image before entering the site?

Here's another Chevelle with a similar color, but looks different from different angles.

There's also a similar color common on Camaros and Corvettes called Quasar Blue that I've come across in various shades over the years.

i dont know how much extra money the tri-color Jetstream blue actually costs...but trust me you would never be disappointed! i constantly get people asking me if its a custom paint color at all the car shows! ive never seen a pic yet that justifys the color shift in it...but if you look at the sun spots in the pic you can sorta see it a bit...a buddy has a 5th Generation Nassua Blue that is the same shade...but no where near as nice in person.
