My boss wants to bring his DD Miata to Earl Scheib for paint. Years ago I saw a 914 painted there. The paint was coming off in sheets and you could see distinct sanding swirls under remaining paint. But, they're still in business - maybe they've improved. Anyone with experiences out there?

Sheib used to do his own commercials back in the 60s. "I'll paint any car, any color for $29.95." Interesting side note. His son went to jail a number of years ago for arms dealing.
Cheers, Elliot |
