Indigo blue is a dark blue , like this one (actually true indigo blue is a shade or two darker than this , my van is Indigo Blue according to it's body plate but the PO painted it this shade , look for the slightly darker patch on the front of the bonnet and where the bumper should be , that's Indigo blue .)

Definitely used in 63 and I've seen it on a 65. Eleven Hundreds used it in 67. So I guess it was around quite a while.

Surf Blue was an English colour Shadow Blue definately 1963 as that's what mine is. see http://www.ozcooper.com.au/paint_codes.htm

This link is to English colour chart - some names are the same, some colours same with different names http://www.tcpglobal.com/autocolorlibrary/chips/1965-blmc-pg01.jpg
