Re: Need help with history of truck

Quote:
If it's in fact real, it woulda been built by Orrville Metal Specialties in Ohio and only have 3 doors. Only a handful were built by them and they were mostly military vehicles.
Orville was not the only company building specialty vehicles. In fact there were a number of suppliers willing to do this. Armbruster was a good example of a longstanding custom body builder willing to manufacture custom trucks. Notice the third door on the opposite side of the truck from an Orville conversion? https://barnfinds.com/armbruster-apa...vrolet-apache/

Other companies include Stageway Coaches, Crown Steel (also in Orville OH), and Proctor Keefe.
