i will be bringing it home this week. i am gonna pull the engine and clean out the bay so it can be sprayed with the rest of the car

Is cobalt blue a toyota color? If it's the one i'm thinking it would be little too purple in certain shades. Kinda like this guy --->

One of my seven's was painted cobalt blue.

Very nice job,.,Thanks this gives me more (FIEBRE) meaning I dont know how to say it. Um rush or passion i dont know how to say it anyways it gets me motivated to do mine ,, Starting on it If everything goes well on march when i get a spot to work on it, But if my cousin from chicago moves down here with his rx2 he said we started same day he gets here he has love for the rotary like i do but he knows his stuff, And having a helping hand is always better,/// Viper Blue is a good color.

I'd have to pull the code off the paint can. Its a common GM paint. It has a fine metal flake in a dark blue.

Check with a supplier before I root around my paint can collection.
