Ravelco Jamaica
If you’ve not been a victim of car theft, you are very likely to become one; at which time you’ll have a story, one that will most likely not be unique.
My story:
I own and operate Century Wrecker Services, Inc, which provides full wrecking services, storage, auto repairs and car rental. After experiencing numerous car thefts first hand with my own rental cars and being constantly summoned for wrecking services by the police to tow what is left of stolen vehicles, it became apparent to me that car theft is that of a pandemic, and I was unwavering in finding a
foolproof anti-theft device against car thieves here in Jamaica. I tried numerous alarms and kill switch systems and still had many a cars stolen, and then I did my research and found the Ravelco Anti Theft Device and the rest is HIS- story…
His Story:
The Ravelco Anti Theft Device was developed in Houston, Texas on July 20, 1976 by Vincent Raviele. Earlier that year, Mr. Raviele drove his brand new Lincoln Mark IV, (which he could not afford) back home to Rhode Island to show his father how well he was doing in the drag racing business in Texas. (Little did anyone know that his car was two payments past due). In downtown Providence on May 30, 1976, Mr. Raviele walked out of a night club toward where he last parked his car. Upon turning the corner he discovered another vehicle parked in its place. The next day the Providence Police recovered the stripped vehicle and contacted Mr. Raviele. The doors, seats, complete interior, tires, wheels, and radio were gone.
Mr. Raviele was determined that having a vehicle stolen would never happen to him again. He searched every phone book and magazine in the country for some type of anti theft device. Even back then, Mr. Raviele knew that everything available was basically for show and did not deter thieves in the least bit. The only device that was available for the prevention of theft was a push button (kill switch) hooked up to the coil and hidden under the carpet under the brake pedal. An alarm system was also available, but in order to activate it, one had to turn it on with a key that was mounted in the fender of the vehicle. Unhappy with the devices available, Mr. Raviele diligently worked day and night and developed the RAVELCO. The RAVELCO Anti Theft Device has been in continuous production since that time. The only change that has been made to the Ravelco over the past 30 years has been improvements in the materials used to manufacture the device itself.
