I looked that and some other cool old trucks that crane(?) company had at our local antique truck show a few years back. It had an old arc welding rig and all set-up in the back.It's a Boyertown body, I'm pretty sure. Cool stuff! They knew their trucks, ordered them right, took care of them, and they are still around after all the years.

I couldn't find a picture of the StepVan but here is an F350 of theirs next to a tractor (Autocar?) of theirs:

I was like ****. It looked super solid. I wonder who bought it. Keep an eye out at your shows to see if it stayed in the area.
