Don't completely agree here.

71 B5 is much brighter than 69-70 B5.
I find that the 68 QQ-1 is fairly close to the 71 Brite Blue, the 71 is a brighter color. Very bright, that's why I chose it for my Barracuda.
Sitting the 71 color next to the 69-70, the earlier color looks more subdued.

Attached are pictures of my 71 B-5 car. The wheels were originally painted for a 68 Barracuda, so they are in QQ-1. Lighting makes it vary, but the QQ-1 is just a bit darker than the 71 B-5. Of course, spray technique will make every color vary.
