Sad to see such a pillar of our community out of business...

My '65 bug was painted at Earl Scheib in  '82. They were kind enough to
paint the tires, windows and even the door handles.  Shortly after the paint
started to fall off. They had a lifetime warranty that says their paint will
never fade.  It never faded.

I think I can do a better job on the Vanagon than any elcheapo place
anyway...
