Anyone out there still making Billy Boxes?

Post by taylormade »

I'm looking to start making some good modifications this fall, but the first has to be AC. After reading through the archives and seeing these beauties, I knew I had to have one. Problem is I don't know of anyone still selling them. Is there a story here?

Yes they are still being produced. Bought one about 6 months ago. Do a search of the forum or pm me.

For anyone following this thread, I spoke to Billy last week and he's doing well. Thanks for the contact Ris! There are some constraints he's working with right now that are affecting his ability to immediately produce these but he's working to get through them. There are a few orders ahead of mine and I'll update this thread (if there's not another one started) when production gets going again. Billy's an awesome guy and I can't wait for mine!
