My spec sheet says
Option #: 25D, Description LDD1 Blue Spec Cust
YE9: Silverado Equipment

Thanks!
I'm not aware of any other name for this interior color other than the GM code 25. The "D" suffix indicates what GM called a "custom cloth" seat fabric. And the "LDD1" is the "seat trim color and ordering code".

You can see all of the colors & upholstery styles available for 1977 in this brochure --> http://brochures.slosh.com/frame.shtml?1977chevy/colors


We had the seat redone at a local upholstery shop. They ordered some original cloth from SMS Auto Fabrics that was a spot-on match as far as the pattern goes. However the color was off ... it had a strange sort of green/turquoise tint as compared to the original blue. So we gave up on trying to find an exact match for the original cloth and just picked out some somewhat similar looking cloth from the upholstery shop's sample books.
