Dave Huff, who sort of took over for Gordon, repainted it and spread the rear end to 130mm around 2007.

His son, John, had just had his frame repainted, and had not yet built it up again. He was showing it to us, and I said, "Hey, wait a minute -- your NAME is on the frame!" He had built it with his dad.

Like yours, his is a beautifully fillet brazed frame. I love lugs, but sometimes I think fillet brazing is even prettier.
