John started out in Kenosha where he was partners with Dennis Rollain and they founded R&B Automotive....they started the business in the mid-sixties and built Mr.Norms first Fiberglass Car as well as Don Schumacher's early Stardust cars.....John moved to California in the late sixties and the as I remember ....the first job he had when he got out there was working for and building the Mickey Thompson Funny Cars...then he went out on his own and built all of Barry Setzers cars and the rest is History..........
