Thanks all for your input and especially Paintwerks . Princess Blue is a very light silver blue metallic, popular on Healeys but also used in the early 289 Cobras . The one I'm basing mine on was one of the last remaining ACs that Shelby didn't take. The AC 289 was the 427SC body and running gear with the small 289 left over from the very first batch built.
I've got a lot of prep work to go before the final coats as I think mine has about 6 clear coats to rub back .
