Dark blue cobra paint identification?

[dlampe]

I am looking for a paint code for a cobra in a blue so dark it is almost black. Ron Randel had an ERA with white stripes and red team stripes, number 98 that I think is beautiful. I think it was ERA 148 but I am not sure. The car is VERY similar to Steve Jaques car in PA. It could be the same car. Anyway I realize that this info is a bit fuzzy but maybe someone can help.

The color is "Nightwatch Blue". Reach out to Ron Randall at Metal Morphous...last I heard he still has the car.

Also, here is a dark blue that is not quite as dark in full sunlight but turns very dark in indirect sunlight and black in the evenings and night:



You might want to take a look at '98 Rolls Royce Royal Blue Metallic or '98 Rolls Royce Ming Blue and experiment a little. This car is offically labeled as the former but I think the real mix was the latter.

This ERA car on Cobra Country is actually dark blue, looks black. I think this is the car once owned by Turk........maybe he can tell us the color or code.

It is a stunning car for sure.

Mine is 2001 BMW Orient Blue. Going by memory, I recall that the BMW paint code is 317.
