They have a colour Royal Blue.... I think the link is here...it's pretty light but it would look good...

apparently they don't have my colour on their site but its like the sunrise red they have...I will take pics of the cans tommorow...but I think all I have left is the spray cans that I used for the interior....oh well that'll do.

I don't like Rust-Oleum. My dad and I painted his old 71 f-100 with rust-oleum and it was not durable at all and was hard to spray.
I'm using a Nason Ful-cryl single stage on my car and it is easy and cheap, and I've heard that since they are just the buget minded Dupoint that it is a decent quality paint

Alright thanks level, I'll look into it.
Well i got some new tires for my truck. My dads rims on his van were **** so he bought a newer set off craiglist and they come with NEW tires... literally they have about 98% tread on them. He is puttin his tires on the rims and giving the tires to me. They are the same exact size as my other tires so on my next payday i'll take those in and have em swap them on for me. I'll probly paint the rims gloss black too 
I needed better tires, when its wet and rainy out and I turn corners the tires like to spin when I let off the clutch with very little throttle. It makes pulling out in traffic impossible.

UPDATE... kinda, i was workin on my truck earlier today, and my neighbor came over and we just talked about trucks and ****... hes a chevy guy but still likes fords. So anyway I told him I planned on a 4 brrl swap on it and he gave me a edlebrock 625cfm carb that needs a minor rebuild and clean-up. So i am gonna rebuild up and then I am gonna find a intake off of craigslist. then I can swap it. So yeah... a free 4 brrl kicks ass

**** you sleeper!! lol.
Yeah its not the best looking. My fuel milage is around 16mpg. I could get more if i keep my foot out of the gas
but yeah, anyways, about those rims... I took them to have the tires put on them and mounted.... and the lug spacing is too small

i think 16 mpg is about as good as you'll get, but to be honest thats pretty good mileage for what it is. expect your mileage to drop after swapping carburetors unless you keep the secondaries closed to conserve gas
