Looking for pics of blue Patrols!

We've decided we like the factory blue colors offered for the Patrols. I looked through all the posts in "Show us your Patrol" last night and saw Syclone65's Turquoise one in Nevada, but I think that was it.
Mt Fuji Blue is the one we keep coming back to, but I's like to see all the blue colors owners have. My parts manual shows 4 different blues..
562 Turquoise
564 Mt Fuji Blue
567 Blue
568 ? (haven't found the description yet)

The brochures forum is my favorite place for seeing old pictures of Patrols wearing their original colors...
I don't think I've ever seen a Patrol in 564 Mt. Fuji blue, or in 568 dark blue that I can recall...????
My 67 that I owned back in the 90's (image below in my sig) still had "what remained" of 2 shades on Nissan blue - it had a 567 blue paint job over the top of 562 turquoise ...and then it had primer over the top of both, and rust underneath all of it...
there is a full size version of this pic in my personal album

I'm thinking that one is also 567 blue... and I really like it, too...
did you download the actual brochure PDF's ? (the links are below the brochure images) - inside the brochures are a ton more pics of Patrols wearing their factory colors

Here are some more images that I have collected along the way, along with what paint code
I think they are- It is so hard to tell an actual paint color chip from pictures- so many variables change the way the color shows up, so who knows if my guesses as to the actual color are correct (please be your own judge)
This one from the 65 brochure looks to me like it might be 564 Mt. Fuji blue... ?

This one I think is 567 blue:

Hard to see on the tag but this is 568
Little bit of wax on this original paint and here is what you get
Not so sun baked and oxidized in the interior.
Cheers
