Since it was a factory Dodge color, I just used single stage touch-up paint I ordered from a dealership. It comes in a rattle can, and the epoxy base on the crate engine makes a great primer.
JBUBBA, I envy the garage too because it isn't mine. It's at the painter's house. The big garage in these pictures is where he does all the prep and finish work. He has another shop on the other side of his house where he does all the metal work, fabrication, and welding. He can fit about 4 cars in the small shop and still have room to work. The only thing he does is restorations.
I really appreciate all the compliments guys. I'm very happy with the way the truck has turned out. He'll have my front windsheild and my cowl panel on tomorrow, then he said he'll probably finish the wiring this weekend. I should have it back next week and the only thing left will be exhaust, interior, and A/C.
