Production Dearborn Deuce Convertibles™ debut
at York, PA June 2004
Full production has now begun on the much-awaited '32 roadster
body with its innovative disappearing top. An impressive lineup of
production bodies at the NSRA Nats East in York, Penn. on June 4, 5,
and 6th, 2004 clearly demonstrated production capabilities.
September 2006
After producing the first 300 bodies, production
has moved from ASC to Oakley Industries, the same company that had stamped the body
panels since the inception of our roadster. In September 2006, we began
releasing the next generation of Dearborn Deuce Convertible roadsters
from Oakley’s production facility in Clinton Township MI.
Oakley has met all our expectations and we are proud to be working
with their experienced team. Visit them on the web at http://www.oakley-ind.com

to make it everything the original wasn't.
Walk into the back room of Oakley Ind. (Clinton
Twp., MI), past the die work being done for major OEM programs, and
you'll see something unusual: new Kirksite dies developed from CAD
data supplied by ASC (Southgate, MI) for a 1932 Ford convertible.
But not just any '32 Ford drop top. This one has been redesigned...
