The old ones that you and I probably remember back in the '50's had Continental 4 cylinder engines ......... the F240 and F300 Ford 6 cylinder engines were put into the trucks beginning in 1964 ........... production continued until 1986 ............ Divco stood for Detroit Industrial Vehicle Co [Cool]

See that little truck all the time at Bear Mtn (like Hawk196 said).

I remember Twin Pines Dairy trucks. Green and
Tan with the milk in bottles with cardboard
caps. My mother would leave milk tokens in
the milk shoot and the milkman would leave
the milk there. She had to buy more tokens
every two weeks. What did we ever do without
7 - 11's or Starvin Marvins!!
