Scirocco Repainted Pictures
Good looking car, Eric! My first Roc was a Flash Silver 8v, I've always
liked that color. Looks great on a 16v.
Years ago my buddy succumbed to the Earl Schieb pitch "I'll paint ANY
car for $99.95!!!".
It didn't even make it through one winter.

The guy at the shop that painted it said that Macco does a good job on the cars, but the biggest difference is the quality of the paint. He said two years down the road the Macco paint would not hold a candle to what it originally looked like when it was done.
