History Duvall windshield

DUVALL WINDSHIELD FRAME
LOOKING FOR HISTORY OF THIS TYPE OF SETUP.
WAS THERE A DUVALL CAR ?
Is someone reproducing them?
Thanks for your time

Currently So-Cal Speed Shop in CA shows 28-36 Duval windshields for sale on their website. If they are getting them from the man in Canada they were very high quality. They don't indicate availability.

 

George DuVall was a real person and yes, there is a lot of history going waaay back.

He's the man behind this, created in 1936/7

Wowsa, what an article!

 

Really fat article, I have studied the early customs since 1953...Never covered up HALF of this great story!

Superb work, Rik!

 

Find a copy of Rod & Custom Magazine, August 1990 for an article on the Duvall.

They are getting them from Canada and they are perfect

 

The only history I know is that he's buried in the Locust Grove, Oklahoma cemetery. Only a tin marker on Find-A-Grave, no headstone.

 

Always loved the Duval frames…make all vehicles look faster just sitting.

 

I'd like to buy one but sure where.

 

As posted, Socal, Speedway, Dennis Obrien etc.....................

 

For the best quality Duval I'd buy the one from So-Cal. As said above made in Canada and they are perfect. More money but quality and good fit cost a little more. I checked Speedway and couldn't find one listed and Obrien offers his version of a Hallock for A's

 

Another good article on DuVall windshields.
