Daytona blue is #916 and correct for 64 Chevelles. It wasn't (and
still isn't) uncommon to not offer all colors across model lines. For 64
Chevelles, there were three colors of blue, #912-Silver blue; #916-Daytona blue;
and #918-Azure blue. See http://cobradeuce.com/CatalogPages-USA/1964ChevroletChevelle.htm for
the colors themselves.

Thanks, I appreciate that.
I talked to a painter here, who has done a lot of old cars, and he uses Urethanes, not enamel or laquer. What I am not sure of now is the color. There is a GM Color #916 Daytona Blue Metallic and the Diplomat Blue paint both listed as on 64 Cars. I want to put on it the original color I had back in early 70's, but can't tell from the chips which it was. So I'm wondering if anyone knows why the #916 is not on the 64 color chip chart, but is listed as a 64 GM Color on another chart including the SS Models.
