I was talking the them on the phone and they are doing business as usual as per Genes request. They are nice people to deal with. |

Blackie Taylor, well known GFI dealer, was at the Phoenix show and said that it's business as usual. The company is in good hands, basically being run by the same person who's been running it for years. |

The company is still operating Gene and his wife had only been making parts in recent years. All those parts can be made at the factory now.
They were at the Phoenix show and will be at the Dallas show - GFI is still going strong. (Darrell is correct)
They used and promoted my seats in their room at the Phoenix show as does other steel builders.
They no longer build seats.

I've wanted a D-10 red Expo for a long time. I'll add it to my PSG herd when I can. Thanks. |
