I'm looking for an inexpensive autobody / paint shop in the socal area.

to be more specific, inexpensive = cheap bastard }:)

even more specific, i'm looking to repaint my '87 toyota pickup. being that it's a pickup, and used for the intended purpose, I don't really want to pay for a great paint job. I know that with car paint:

you pretty much get what you pay for.

so with that said, I kinda consider this task a perfect candidate for Earl Scheib, except they closed shop in July..

anyone got any leads on something that fits my description?

There are still Scheib shops, but no parent company.

Took the BMW here last year http://orangenorthbatavia.maaco.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; paid less than $900.00 IIRC. Done in a few days, good people too.
I paid a little extra for colorchange/doorjambs too.

One Day Paint & Body was a Scheib competitor. Same deal: cheap, not great pain jobs.

We can do it right here in my driveway. You don't even have to wash the car. Just bring it over.

Or you can try my buddy Jaime........323-434-5124, and he can paint it in his driveway. He's painted several cars for me and does a real nice job inexpensively. JK about the driveway.
