[A/S] Billy Sims in Lubbock



In my hometown, and the Billy Sims crew are really helpful and willing to take
on emergencies.  I brought in a trailer from Raton with both original vent
covers - (alum with fiberglass centers insulated?? ) destroyed by softball hail
out at the Whittington Ctr. 
Drove it 300 miles back to Sims in Lubbock and got there ahead of the storm that
got us in NM and had the covers replaced before the 1" gully washer showed up.

I cannot say enough good about Sims.  I will often take the trailer up there
(from Houston) and leave it over the winter for work to be done when it gets
slow.  I then pick it up in the spring and tow it back to Raton.

If you need any parts or accessories or even want to do a trade, etc.  Lots of
stock.  Back in the 70s, there were two authorized Airstream
stores/dealers/shops in the State of Texas.  One was Abbott's in Lubbock (where
I was trained while doing my PhD) and the other was Jones here in S.Houston.

Abbott died but Billy Sims took over the franchise? and is going great guns with
it.  And of course, Texas is just plain friendly!!!
