With a trim of 2B, Light and Dark Blue interior, My 68' J code coupe, Diamond Blue with the same 2B trim code has a dark blue dash pad and medium blue carpet. Might be considered dark blue carpet, but it is sun faded and even under the seats, it is lighter than the dash pad. Hope this doesn't confuse you. LOL Marty Rupp may be able to chime in since he has seen a heck of a lot more blue interiors than I have.

Here is a 68 standard blue interior. My dad is doing a Calspecial that is Presidental Blue with a 2B interior. He is have trouble finding a blue steering wheel. They do not reproduce any more.
Let me know if you have any questions. Marty
