Default faulty shutter on ancient Graflex 4X5 SLR

I'd like to get this old camera up and running.
Other than Graflex.org are there any sites devoted to these cameras and the
more technical aspects of shutter curtain repairs?
Also have a Goerz Anshutz with same problem...
Any help greatly appreciated!
Health & Peace,
Uncle Lucky

Fred Lustig, who was the Graflex wizzard for many years

had a
stroke recently and is evidently out of business, at least
temporarily.
I would try Photography on Bald Mountain or Steve

Grimes shop at
http://www.skgrimes.com I am away from home so don't
have
Photography on Bald Mountain's contact info. It should be

on Google.
Graflex shutters are pretty simple. Not much goes wrong

with them
other than curtains wearing out.
The Goerz Anchutz has a more complex shutter. I think

the above
shops may be able to repair that also.

Oh, dear, I forgot.
