I stopped in Sebastopol for some repairs on my Vanagon last summer while on
a road trip. Hans and the crew at J & W Foreign Auto Service were totally
cool with bumping me to the front of the list for my emergent repairs and
cut me a deal when I paid in cash.
I'd go there again if I were in the little town of sebasipole!
