Chuck,
I believe the paint code is DD, from what you have listed. Somehow I
lost the web site I was looking at, but it was for a 66 and "DD" was
Mist Blue for that year and probably the same for your car.
As for your seemingly displeasure of the body shop, just be glad they
are working on your car. Don't think I'm picking on you, Chuck. I've
seen many other posts complaining about body shops. They make their
money from insurance claims. They are doing you a favor by taking your
car in. Besides that, the insurance jobs are for busy people's daily
transportation. Your Corvair is a hobby car, most likely, and is
bringing them not anywhere near the profit margin that the insurance job
does.
Good luck with your project
