Never seen one, never heard of the company. Personally, I would spend a few extra bucks and get one from a manufacturer known for his quality, or take a fiberglass expert with me to the Ravon plant and examine them very closely. Fiberglass companies making Deuce bodies come and go with alarming frequency. When they go their warranty goes with them, and the molds just go to a new shop in a new location, usually with few improvements made.

I took a tour of the Ravon shop 15 years ago. I was very impressed with the bodies that Randy, the owner, showed me and with their overall operation. By now, they have been in business for at least 20 years and that, in it self, is one hell of a recommendation.

When I built my 32 roadster Ravon was at the top of my list. But I am 6'2" tall and needed a stretched cockpit. I used a Show Me Rod and Custom body.

Incidentally, when I talked to Randy about getting a body two years ago (or was it three) he was about 9 months backloged on roadsters. Another good recommendation.

Hey, if I was buying a body, and Bib's told me they were good, that would be enough for me. Take a look at his car, he DOES know quality. Thanks for letting me in on Ravon, Bibs. I'm going to be out there way later this summer might have to call and see if it's ok to stop by. Thanks.
