You Get what you pay for.

Earl painted my first car, a 63 dodge Dart. Cost was $29.95 No ups or extras. The were even kind enough to Paint my bumpers, tires and crohm to match. What a deal.

The next job earl did was a 84 Delta 88 royal broham color was fairly close to factory but I did the prep/body work. $250.00. It was a nice job.

I just spoke with earl again and now wants $350 to paint my 80 van. Spent a couple of hours talking with The manager about the good old days. Earl did his first job when it was $19.95.

Earl has his place in the market and you do get what you pay for.
