Default Color opinion

Does the body look like it was repainted in Silverleaf green? The jamb area is original paint which is Aquamarine.
Not sure if it’s just a bad match. Can’t remember the last time I saw Silverleaf green in person.
Trying to decide on what paint to buy to paint the jamb areas.

It may be the lighting, but it all looks Yorktown Blue to me.

FWIW

Looks that way to me too. I once had a '62 Catalina that was Silverleaf Green. If you have a PPG dealer nearby they have a historical service in Ohio that may have the correct formula for that color. I had to use them to get '65 GTO Palmetto Green made up right.

There seems to be no body shop supply places anywhere near me. I ordered some epoxy primer from TCP Global. Going to order paint from them as well. I’m not a body guy so just trying to clean up some rusty places in the jambs for now.
Probably go with Silverleaf even though I like the Aquamarine better. Should be close enough.

I used TCP for my 68 GTO and 62 cat. Happy with their paint.
