I remember McClusky's blue being popular in the 80's because someone decided that Guardsman was too dull. Then Shelby's coupe was painted in that color. I frankly don't understand it if one is trying to imitate 1965.
McClusky certainly does incredible work but since Original Cobra's have been trading at big bucks it appears the trends along with the buyers expect original colors. If you pay 5 million for a coupe and have to repaint it, the cost is only a fraction of the cost. If you buy a replica for 100,000+, your are talking over 10% of the price in order to re-paint it.
