The infamous "MOON" logo is now more than a half-century-old, if you have been exposed at all to the world of street-rodding and racing you are probably familiar with it. If you know what the logo stands for you must be familiar with its creator, Dean Moon "An Original Innovator".

As a teenager growing up in the 40's Dean's passion was for cars, he wasn't content leaving them alone and was always looking for ways to make them faster. The very first product sold my Moon was cast aluminium fuel block that Dean actually created in high school shop class. Dean's parents owned a small café in Santa Fe Springs, Ca and it was from a small garage out the back that the most infamous company in hot-rodding was born. Deans products and innovations became instantly popular with racers and hot-rodders in Southern California. He took the money he was making and put it right back into developing new products, he soon outgrew that small garage and moved his company to the location where it still exists today.

Many of Dean's innovations are renowned to racing and hot-rodding. Moon spun aluminium wheel discs are still widely used on dry lake and land speed cars. You can find Moon aluminium fuel tanks and oil tanks on many of today's drag cars and boats. If you've ever admired the hot rods, Street rods and customs that fill the pages of your favourite magazines and fill the halls of the biggest car shows, then you've seen Moon "no name" finned aluminium valve covers, Moon gauges and many other products created by Dean Moon.

Dean became heavily involved in motorsports to showcase his products. He built several famous cars including; The "Moonbeam" a Devon-bodied sports car powered by a V8 Chevy with a Potvin Front mounted blower. The "Moon Jocko Streamliner" the sleekest most eye-catching car to hit the salt-flats. The most famous was the "Mooneyes Dragmaster Dragster" which now rests in the "Don Garlits Drag Racing Museum" in Florida, although its Moon built replica cand still be seen running at some select drag races.

Dean had associations with many of the legends in our industry, including Vic Edelbrock, Ed Iskederian, Don Garlits, Clay Smith, Mickey Thompson, George Barris and Ed "Big Daddy" Roth to name but a few. It was Dean's relationship with Carroll Shelby that brought Shelby to Moon Facility to construct the very first "Shelby Cobra" which rolled out of the Moon machine shop in 1962. Dean also served as an original board member and past president of SEMA, the Specialty Equipment Marketing Association.

Dean passed away in 1987, not only was this a shock to his family and friends but it was a great loss to our industry as we had lost one of our founders. We will always remember Dean as a true legendof our time and the company that he created now lives on as "MOONEYES" Continuing in the tradition, "MOONEYES" will bring quality and innovations for years to come, look for the Moon logo and accept only the best.....
