A question came up on my model car forum.

One of the other users has been asked to build a replica of his friend's 1955 Newport Blue Heron.

Does anyone know which blue is correct for that?

Tangential to the discussion was the Green Falcon. Does anyone know the correct green?

Thanks.

.
So like this (definitely not a stock 55 Chrysler colour - looks more like a darker shade of 55 Desoto Coronado Green):

DuPont included the paint chip on their 1956 colors as "late 1955". My scanner isn't working so I can't post a scan of it.

No problemo. There is a Dupont sheet on eBay (Heron Blue is very Blue and not a shade of Turquoise at all):
