Truck had been in a bad accident and was parked in the woods for 30+ years.
Very minimal usable parts from the truck, but has a very cool service body on the rear.
Was wondering if anyone has any info on these bodies.
Rarity? , Value?
I cannot seem to find much info at all online other than a few pictures.
Original tag on body states York Hoover CO.
York, PA. Build date of 4/1954 Model: IU76
I will attach some pictures as soon as I figure out how...
Thanks!

If it is like an army green then most likely "General Telephone Company" that became GTE. I know York. PA itself was GTE --- not sure if it was General Telephone Company before. Is there a comapny name on the truck anywhere or a picture of an old phone? | | |
