Default Paint question

I was wondering if 68 and 69 Lemans Blue are the same. I have been looking through old paint chip books from Dupont and PPG and it looks as if the two years are different. Any idea?
Thanks,
Joe

I think there is a slight difference between the two.
Looking at the 1968 & 69 RM paint charts I have here,I want to say the 1968 version has a lil more greenish hue to it.
Here's what I'm showing:

*1968 Corvette code 976 LeMans Blue met. is RM code A-2007.

*1969 Corvette code 976 LeMans Blue met. and Pass. car code 71 LeMans Blue met. are both RM code A-2109,and also Lucite code 5030L,and Ditzler code 2083,Master Fisher code 3962 and Production code #927-99593.
