How much difference is there between Caravelle Blue for 68 and the Blue Poly used the next 4 or 5 years?

EN-66, aka engine blue # DQE13730, top, Caravelle blue bottom. Flash, camera, monitors, do affect the appearance of the colors.

More noticeable when in front of you. I see a deeper or richer blue. Though I am color blind and see blue, as a stand out, more than most. Just I can't trust my eyes when other colors like purple of similar shade, may throw me off.

Yeah, darker, I guess the lack of silver mix makes the blue slightly deeper to me. |

I've seen Caravelle Blue used on '68 heads with black added to 'tone it down'. Just enough black was added to approximate the color of the unmolested block color.
