Thank you.
Como Blue was NEVER a '40 Ford color.

One must be very diligent when it comes to choosing a color if authenticity is critical.
That chart in post #16 is a huge example of incorrect data being turned out to the public. I know of at least one law suit brought on due to a person choosing a '40 Ford color from that chart only to find it was not.
Kind of late in the game to discover you'd already painted your car the wrong color.
