1968 was Caravelle blue, then in '69 it went to Alamosa Aqua until 74 or 75 ? when it went to what looks like Makita blue.

Motor Coater brand sells these colors well matched in spray cans or pints.

Right?!? I wish I had pics that does it justice on the 401. In real life it's dazzling.

You could do your whole jeep. it's 1969 AMC Alamosa Aqua. I had a '69 390 4spd Javelin in this color, the engine and car matched it was kind of neat.

I know this is a few weeks late but I have found this place to be a really good source of AMC paint.
they sell restoration parts for AMC cars but stock all the paints.
