Ford GT40 MKI

An interesting history, originally a street GT40, then the Gulf Oil Company wanted to go racing and turned this GT40 into a race car. It raced at Daytona and Sebring. Its not in the traditional gulf colors either. Note the rear indicator light on the left rear fender (in orange) and the top mounted green/red lights on the roof (first time i've seen one that had these).

Does anyone know what the paint colors are? I assume the Orange is Gulf Orange? But what is the Blue?

I found some info on racingicons./gt/1049 "Note the factory dark metallic blue paint & the famous Gulf Oil orange center stripe."

I'd have to guess it's either a 66' or 67' Dark Metallic Blue "Ford/Lincoln/Mercury Color... but an exact paint code for both the blue and orange would be awesome!
