What would you guys reccomend for painting the bike. I would like to keep it the origonal red color but the tank, fender and body pieces need some work. How would i paint it and does anyone knwo what that color is called?

ppg and dupont both make an excellent urethane multi part paint,,, but need skills to put it on.
    andretti red is the shade hardest to fund,,, but if you have a ford dealership nearby, have them paint your parts in mustang red , isnt that expensive, and you will like the color
keep your bike running,your beer cold ,and your passport handy.all are like money in the bank .

That red is a candy colour  and as Kia said requires two paints to get it right. In its day it was a Candy apple red.
