"I see," said the blind man as he picked up his hammer and saw. "Oh, no, you can't," said the man who couldn't talk.

Well, you may already know L512 (below the "waistline")/L289 (above; also called "blue white") is a combo which was offered for that year. (Reference One)

Another effective combo which was offered in 1962-63 was L380 (Turquoise)/L289 even though the former color was not on your list. (Reference Two)

I didn't find all ten colors listed. My search was confined to Wolfsburg West's list and PaintScratch.com's list. The blues and greens I did find didn't seem complimentary to each other. If I went totally off your list, I found combos I liked.

In the end, my favorite is what I called Reference One. To me, that combo being a legitimate combo for that year is a plus. I don't recall having ever seen that combo before. Reference Two and the off-the-charters were nice second choices in my mind.
