If it’s a total loss….

special NLS factory tools
custom jigs and tooling
cores
patterns
machines, some likely unique
countless parts (from decades of buyouts of closing dealers and original suppliers, from custom manufactured runs, etc.)
CNC machines
Were computer files backed up offsite?
Talented staff that may not be able to return after a long hiatus.
etc. etc. etc.

My gut sadly suspects they won’t recover.  

I remember buying parts from their first catalog. (in the late 70s?)  I even had a job offer from Paul Runyan around 1984ish that came a couple months after my inquiry when I was looking to leave California.  Having not heard back in so long, I had moved anyway, but I remained in the sunbelt.  (I returned to California in 1989.)

It is indeed horrible news for those of us who seek parts Moss does not 
carry. But it has got to be immediate for those of us in the middle of a 
transaction. Parts paid for but not yet shipped and the computers with 
info about the transaction up in smoke.

I find myself wondering about their side curtain rebuilding shop. 
Customer's factory original side curtains waiting to be rebuilt. Were 
they stored and rebuilt in the same building or in a different location? 
I had mine rebuilt a little over a year ago. Very high quality work. I 
hope customer side curtain frames are someplace else and can be finished.

Maybe there is special tooling used to make TRF parts located at other 
companies where special parts were manufactured for TRF? What might 
happen to anything located in different locations? I'm thankful I have 
my rebuilt side curtains and the frames are not still sitting at TRF. 
But what about others?
