HELP: I need a mixing formula for Nassau Blue

My 69 Cutlass Convertible 'S' is supposed to be painted tomorrow and the body shop just called to say they can't find a cross reference for the Nassau Blue from the paint code on the '69 color charts. They can find mixing formulas for 62-63 Olds Nassau Blue, and for 65-66 Corvette Nassau Blue, but they can't find a mixing formula for the code for the 69 Cutlass.

So I'm looking for anyone that might have a current mixing code/formula for one of the paint manufacturers (PPG, Spies Hecker, etc) for the correct Nassau Blue.

This is an urgent call for help. We want to get the car painted this weekend so we can get it back together in time for a special family event next weekend.

Any help or info you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Garth

Eric - I'm in San Jose, California. Shop uses Spies Hecker as well as PPG products.

GAOldsman - Thanks! This is exactly what I'm looking for.

Cheers!

Here's a new thread I started to share the progress.

I just got off the phone with the body shop and the car was painted last night. I'm heading over to see it at lunch time. I'll post some pics this afternoon in the thread above.
