Is the original color Glacier Blue with white top? As this car looks like it was a twin to mine, even down to the gas door chrome

Got a little work done on the 55 today...rear brake hose in, new master cylinder, flushed out all old brake fluid, so brakes are totally done and ready, also front KYB shocks installed. Next weekend Blueprint engine going in...still waiting on the transmission though, should be done in a couple weeks.
