84 z28 paint color

back in the day my mom had an '84 z28.. it was a blue grey color. i was wondering if anyone would happen to know how i can find out what the color is, or if anyone has pictures of an 84 with the original blue-ish grey paint on it. i would definately know it if i saw it.. i just haven't seen one like it in forever. i am going to be painting my iroc soon and there is a possibilty that i will go with that color if i can find out what it is.. post pics if you have 'em!

You can find a car with that color in the thread marked
"post pictures of blue third gens". It's on the last page.

The original paint code will be stamped on the cowl tag on your radiator support.

Re: 84 z28 paint color

no.. i never found the name for the color but i found a few pics of camaros with it. i am guessing that was only on z28's and not iroc's and was not very common. i still like the color but i am not completely sold on it. i would say there is a good chance my iroc will get a new coat of it's original blue paint.
thanks for the help though guys.. much appreciated.
