I was looking around on AutoColorLibrary.com that has Ditzler and PPG paint codes and noticed that there are two codes for Brittany Blue Poly. For 1967 they show 12843 and for 1968 they have 13619. Does anybody know why or what the difference is between the two colors?

I'd like to know this, too. There are a few odd things in the paint world. For example, there are at least three different names for the code 6 blue for my '70, depending on where you look.------------------

It looks like they have a slightly different color composition/tinting, thus the different number. It looks like 1968 is slightly darker. Hope this helps:http://www.svs.com/zim/mustang/images/1967-ford-ppg.jpg

It looks like your blue and pastel gray are the same in 1969. In 69 D and 6 are mixed around but for 70 I get Bright Blue Metallic (same paint code as Acapulco Blue) for 6. Diamond Blue seems to disappear for 1969 and comes back as Pastel Blue in 70.
