Our catalog hasn't been printed in years. We started out the 1990's as an
online-only retailer, and only added the print catalog later as a stop-gap
to accommodate customers who didn't yet have internet access. (Remember,
these were the days of AOL dial-up!)  As internet access became faster and
more widely available, we eventually reverted back to online-only. Of course
prices and availability have changed since the catalog was last printed, and
it only covered the more popular parts, but the diagrams and part numbers
did make it a useful reference tool for many.  Even today I still meet
people who keep a dog-eared copy in their Vanagon.

I don't have any more hard copies (other than a few we use at the shop
ourselves), but you could download and print the following pdf file, which
is a scan of the original:
