Southwest Frameworks?

Has anyone used Southwest Frameworks for paint lately? I lost my Stan Pike in the fire they suffered a few years ago but am willing to give them another try on my Gloria Garibaldina if people have had a good experience.

I emailed with Dave a couple of weeks ago. Need to schedule some time to make the drive up from Houston to drop off a Jeunet.

Another try? Did something go sideways previously?

Southwest Frameworks does top notch work.
Dave is a expert steel frame builder and has many decades of experience.
They also do plenty of CF work.
That fire was unfortunate for anybody that lost some classics but accidents do happen.
My friend also lost a valuable vintage Italian.
You need to have lots of patience as they are small and maybe running behind.
My steel lugged frame fixes were superb and they can also do custom painting / matching.
Sure hope they last for a few more.years as its an old business that may not continue on.

Okay thanks for the responses, I will contact David and see if I can get the Gloria in line for a paint job.
