Vipergts, the following paint codes have been taken from various sources. These codes will provide you some basic information about what paint code may have been used by a paint manufacturer at some time. As you can see the first two definitely show the year you refer to (1965) please use these codes only as a guide, use some other process to corroborate the accuracy of the colour. I hope this helps, kind regards, Omnipeta.

is the colour simply called dark Blue or is it Indigo Blue? I have seen Indigo Blue on an E and its a superb colour.

They are two different colours. Used at for somewhat different years (but there may have been overlap, don't remember).
I think Indigo Blue is 'bluer' and Dark Blue has more black in it. I've had E-types in both but not side by side.

Indigo is the early colour.........can be seen on the early o/c car Harry is restoring and Dark blue as already mentioned is darker and deeper.
I love these colours right now.......they are so right with the red leather. Fortunately for me this is the original combo for mine.
