Did you ask MRL what paint they use? I believe he uses Rustoleum but why not call and ask?
I sent him an email regarding it... just waiting for a reply.
Hmmm..... don't like using anything that says f*rd. lol
A google search plasticote 232 this looks close, anyone got experience with it?

Yes, that looks like a Ford blue I have seen many times.
Ok. I had requested Chrysler Blue during the build, but just trying to get a match at this point.
I will try some to see for a match.
Thanks.

Oriellys has chrsyler coded engine paint
I tried that paint in the image above. It doesn't match the engine painted in the picture. It's already installed in the car. I just need to do some touch ups.

Or you can just call MRL... LOL Or is that too easy?
Nope. I just hate to bother him as I know he is busy guy, which is why I sent him an email.

Then go out and buy 5 different cans and tell us which one it is.

I believe he mentioned in a past thread Rustoleum...
I will probably give him a call once I get the car back. The installer has been working getting the engine in for 7 weeks, so no rush at this point. Lol. At least I can park the daily driver in the garage. I bought the car a year ago yesterday and drove 300 miles and rings let go in June. At this point. I would just like to get it running. Frustrating with the installers challenges.

I looked at that and it must be Ford light blue cause I don't see any Chrysler Blue offered by Rustoleum.

His shop is closed on Monday anyway.
Got it. No worries it's just paint. Nothing has been easy with this car since buying it and it's a push to get it completed and home before the snow flies. I was hoping to get the to throttle brackets painted for the installer tomorrow as I want to get the car done this week. This is the last hold up. I was just hoping someone here would know.
All good. Thanks everyone.

I understand your predicament. I would let him install the brackets and you can always paint them later. Just get that car back. If all the parts were there, 7 weeks is a very long time for an install. I could see 1-2 weeks if it were a busy shop and again, if all the parts were there. A
Re: the paint. As mentioned by several others, calling the builder directly is your best bet. Don't feel like you are "bothering" him/them, you are a legitimate paying customer with a quick, simple question. GL.

Thanks all the parts have been there except these 2 brackets.
I get a charge out of the guy's comment about the blue paint not matching Mopar's turquoise color. No **** Shirlock! LOL
