Default correct paint for an 87?

yeah i've had my 87 stang for about 3 yrs now( since i got my licence) and it's pretty obvious it has been repainted before i bought it. i was just wondering if that blue and silver was its factory colors or if its been changed. i looked in all the door jams and everything, and it has been all resprayed so it's really hard to tell. i've seen alot of GTs around here but i haven't seen one painted with these colors. oh and if possible, if anyone knows what the paint is "named" that would be helpful, thanks.
here is the picturehttp://www.solisearch.net/ims/pic.ph...W0Y7O&i=283748
haha and i know someone's going to ask, yes that's an icecream truck in the picture by the stang haha

I've never seen one that dark of a blue before or with a blue stripe but the car looks pretty damn good.

try looking under the spare tire, and on the bottom of the rocker panels or side skirts, under the hood is usually pretty hard to get to, it all those colors are the same then most likely the car is just been resprayed the stock colors, im pretty sure that pinstripe looks like the factory blue that they used to use. cant be sure but i would say those are factory colors.
