Before I get ready to reinstall my engine, I would like to repaint it in the factory rebuilt red. Does anyone know of a rattle-can color that will match?

Can anyone recommend an adequate 'rattle can' primer, gloss black and semi-gloss black that would work well for some of the many small parts that require those colors?

Just thought I'd say thanks; found this list while browsing Jeep sites (I'm more usually on the CJ3B page) but here in England we've started rebuilding a pile of rust that was once a '46 CJ-2A and I wanted to know what color the frame should be. I now have the answer! Yesterday we fitted a new rear crossmember to the frame.
