Default Paint

One of my kids chipped the paint on my drivers door. Where can I get touch-up paint? My car is painted the original Ford vintage burgundy.

Into my bag of secret incantations, potions and tricks we pull out - paint. Go to www.paintscratch.com
Be advised that after 40 years, original paint changes. A car that is repainted the 'original color' somehow winds up a slightly different shade over time.

I couldn't remember the name. It's in one of my 'favorites' sub-folders though.

1. Get a shed from Home Depot - all 'kid' stuff goes in it.
2. Get new locks on garage doors.
3. Buy a beer frig and microwave oven.
4. Move into garage.
