My 69 f5 superbee is a original paint car from the doors back, but the fenders were sprayed in lacquer. I bought a power bulged hood and I need to paint it to match. My buddy said he can spray it, now I just need to find paint, enough to paint a hood, hood hinges, and touch up some paint chips. Where can i buy some? Thanks in advance

PPG still make DDL, their acrylic lacquer. It's not easy to find as most paint jobbers stopped carrying is some time ago. You may have to check around. It seems that tcpglobal sells an acrylic lacquer that might well be ddl as well. You might want to contact them for color matching etc. I found a few good references below:

Not going to be easy to get a good color match.

$130/quart...not very cheap but lacquer is getting harder to find every day.

I have a gallon of TT code from 68. Is that the same as F5?

No, F5 is a tad darker. My 68 RR is a TT1 car. I went with F5 however as I prefer the darker shade.
