    I have a set of deep six's with Al for re-finishing, They have been with him for about 5 weeks. I talked to him once and he told me that he is having a family medical issue. I have tried as recently as today to contact the shop and his voice mail is full.

    does anyone else have wheels with him for re-finishing? Know whats going on?
    I don't want to intrude on his family health issues, but would liketo know whts up? Any suggestions, wisdom?

    Can't shed light on any health issues, hope all is well with Al/family. Not to worry Al is as good as gold but I do understand you would like to know status of your wheels.

    I have no problem with the theory that all men are created equal.
    But after that moment you are on your own and nobody owes you a damn thing.

    Diane has not been well. She may still be in the hospital. She is the one that makes sure the rims are correctly masked, then she does the frosting treatment. One of our clients dropped by yesterday in the early afternoon , and they were closed. Yet another client called and got thru today. He was informed that new orders may take 3 weeks.
    We will try to find out in the next couple days on what progress the wheels and Diane are undertaking. We have a set of rims there too

    We wish her well

    I spoke with Al late last week about a set of tires he needs to send me back. It is true that Diane has had some health problems but things are looking better. It took me several times to actually get him on the phone. Please be patient with him as this situation is very very difficult on him. Im sure that he will come through but just needs some time. As others have said, Diane is responsibile for everythign there short of actually doing the work and he is a bit disorganized right now. I have no affiliation with Al just a past customer.
