yellow 1989 ford mustang? i will be buying a 1989 mustang coupe the color is tropical yellow and the front fender needs paint and i want to paint the black moldings to color match the paint. the car color is rare from what ive heard but where can i find the paint for it?

can i go to ford and buy the paint from there? would it still be available? or will i be able to find the paint elsewhere? if so where?

not looking to spend a whole bunch of cash i only have 500 max to spend since i am only a college student with low funds so ill do it my self or have my friends father do it if he has the time (he's been a mechanic for decades does incredible work from engine bay to bodywork) and if i have no choice will maaco or earl schieb do the job to at least get the color to match the oem paint? not worried about the quality just need this car to be presentable since it will be my everyday car

would greatly appreciate it if i had good answers instead of rude comments because i know alot of true car painters and hot rodders dislike earl schieb and maaco i just really need this done within a month then my project will be complete please let me know thanks!
