508 is solid dark blue
538 is conventional two tone (521 white cab/508 dk blue body)
592 is special two tone (like Dave's)
559 is custom two tone (501 med blue cab/508 dk blue body)

You can do a search of the board and there are a few threads on this. A lot of us get especially excited about the custom two tones. Pretty cool and not that many out there.

That helps a lot, thanks!

I can't be sure, but you may be the luckiest guy I know. Looks like a '70 dark blue to me. Shout out to JoesJunk for the heads up.

I know it's got the molding. But that's a genuine hen's tooth right there.
