Cliff;
I am so glad you take the time and effort to provide us with these photos every week.
I, seriously, wait for this post.
You have such a good eye for color and detail.
Thanks hardly seems enough for your contribution.
Dave
P.S. I love the El Camino pictures. I have a 64 and really like to see what others do with their utility car

Doc> not to contradict you as I so respect your knowledge and willingness to share it, but just what I remember.
Most of the Devins with which I am familiar, were sold as body kits which were then installed on TR-MG, etc. frames with the same make engine, or custom frames and Chevrolet V8's. Bill Devin did build some cars. The following has some info.

Most I ever saw or fussed with were "rail" frames built with Chryslers, Jim. You ain't contradictin'. Just relating what ~was~.
It was the heyday of custom builders. They apparently got to where I was (western PA) with "custom" meaning something other than Chevy.
I do know there's a lady in Kansas or Oklahoma or *someplace* out there like that still campaigning a blue one in vintage events with a Chrysler V8 stuffed in it, too.

Would love to find an original body and maybe put it on a Factory 5 frame streched 4" and modified as necessary.
There was a blue Devin with some history, as I remember, on EBAY some weeks ago. Don't remember what or if it went for.
