It was an early kit car. I have seen the fiberglass bodies installed on all kinds of chassis, from Triumphs to shortened Chevys.

Jamin,
As of about a year ago, the Devin name and rights were owned by 3 investors, one of which is an M.D. who lives here in Houston. If you are interested, I will contact him and give him your name and tel.# At the time I met him, they had no plans to revive the company.

Devins are another love of mine also. A year or two ago I learned of a group of guys planning on marketing a replica of the Devin SS and calling it the Ravana. Kind of ironic isn't it? A replica of a replica!!
Anyway, their website hasn't changed one bit in all this time (no updates) and they appear to be somewhat "under-funded"; don't hold out much hope that they will ever finish the project and market a kit.
Their website is www.classicsportscars.com

They could be in for a real legal battle if the owners of Devin find out. That is a real sore subject with at least one of them.
