    Wesccotts in Oregon have been making the best glass bodies for decades

    Those C&W bodies are awesome and with the exchange rates a possible option. They are steeled out and really well made to pass Australian rego standards.

    The building is still there, but I go by there 1-2 times a week, and nobody there. Word is they're not making anything, but can't confirm it.

    Wesscots still has a Web Site so they might be still in business. My Deuce roadster has a Wesscots body that is steel reinforced and has no stress cracks after 50K miles. What ever body you purchase make sure it is steel reinforced and not wood.

    The last prices I saw from Wescott were about double what other manufacturers charge. I wanna say about $15k. I know they are really well made but thats not chump change. :)

    Wescott doesn't make a '34 3 window. Only a roadster. Their '32 3 window is top notch.

    grdral,

    What can you tell me about the chopped 1934
    Ford 5 Window Coupe body that this CW Componets is producing?

    I saw the photo of the light green Coupe you posted and the body appears to look really nice.

    Are they a reputable company? From what I can find out, it appears that it may be a father and son operation.

    Anything you can share would be greatly appreciated.

    Kerry

    Years back I got a factory tour and was rightly impressed.
