Thanks for all the input. We miked the correct alfa "sky blue" and the owner wasn't too impressed with it so we started adding color to it and came up with a great result. It's very close to the original, just with a little more blue. Here is what the car looked like before it went in for paint. Since the car was all apart, we went ahead and had lots of stuff re-chromed.

That's a nice paint job, Anthony. Just curious, is there any rubber seating/seal underneath the hood/trunk hinges to protect the paint? I can't make out any from the pictures you posted. Thanks.

Thats the second car to come back from a body shop we just started using. So far so good. There are three more Alfa's there right now so we'll see if they keep up the good work. No rubber seals under the hinges.
