I would have leaned more toward IHC, except that the drip rail and rear side window don't look like something IHC would do. I am not very familiar with that vintage truck, though.

I drove an old Diamond Reo a couple times and I can't imagine driving one of those over the road. Granted trucking has changed dramatically in the last 40 years, but I still can't imagine pushing on of those beasts 500 miles or more in a day.

Hy Guys, I don't have enough markers on the green truck to have an opinion, however the red one is a Diamond T, mid 50s sleeper cab, probably at least a 600 series if not larger.

The sleeper has to be a Diamond T of the mid 50's. The strip of chrome on the door was sort of their trade mark. Be a nice truck to restore, but in my opinion there is too much missing. You could spend a life time looking for parts.

That green truck could be a Dodge. There's not really much to go by, but that corner cab window looks like it could be Dodge.
