Default New paint

Well I have everything together to paint my 84 c4 except the paint and the primer
I've decided on 2003 corvette # 88
Medium spiral gray paint
Is there a good source online for the paint and epoxy primer?
Thanks

Be damn sure whatever you do to use a complete system. One time I shot PPG DP 40 epoxy on bare metal of my Jeep body. 6 months later PPG revised their instruction sheets and said the primer I used could not be put over DP 40. I had areas of lifting and all PPG would do for me was give me a gallon of paint for free. I rolled it over shortly after and trashed the body and got my free paint.

Apprentice painters should stay away from metallic.
