You can get some at your local chevy dealer...or at an auto parts store..i bought the Duplicolor(the one with the pen end) and it works good.

If you can't find what you want locally try Paintscratch.com. I have the orange decals on my '97 Anniversary Z and I was looking for paint to touch up a couple of bad spots on the stripes. I was able to order "Hugger Orange" from thier 1969 list and got a perfect match. Order came in just a few days. If you don't get an acceptable match you can paint the test card they include, mail it in, and they will test it for accuracy. I highly recommend them.

I actually work at a body shop. Let me give you my personal opinion here:
touch up paint sucks. If you have to do it, get it from the dealership, or go to a local body shop where they can get a closer match to the color of your car. (One red car isnt the same as another red car, they are usually a shade or two off from each other because of variables in the factory.) Dont us the crap at the parts stores.
Just know that in the end, touch-up paint doesnt look good either. It looks like a bunch of bumps all over your car. It's more for protecting the metal underneath from rusting than anything else.

I agree w/ heavymetal. Go to a body shop and they can get you a small thing of paint for touch up that will match your color 99%

duplicolor also offers a touch up paint kit that includes spot putty, filler primer, clear coat and a wet sand paper. thats also if u wanna shell out 14 bucks (at walmart) and go the touch up paint route
