Anybody heard from Mel at Classic Bowties?
I have left him a couple messages and nothing back. I know he Elk hunts so not sure if anyone in Portland has been by his place.

Re: Anybody heard from Mel at Classic Bowties?
I've seen where a member asked the same question before. I believe the explanation was Mel is a commercial fisherman, out on the water for extended periods of time

Re: Anybody heard from Mel at Classic Bowties?
Yes, both his numbers, email too. Thanks.
I bought some NOS wheel tubs for the bed and I need them to get a paint quote. Frustrating. |

Re: Anybody heard from Mel at Classic Bowties?
It is not a huge deal so I hope he is ok. They don't stay out at sea for four months at a time.

Re: Anybody heard from Mel at Classic Bowties?
You're right about not being out so long for sure. I hope all is well as well. I guess keep trying, this coming from one who isn't good at that. I hope he gets back to you soon, though.
