Products of the Detroit Industrial Vehicle Company - Divco milk trucks, a
true American classic. Our milkman, Red Helmlinger drove his while in
the standing position, there were no seats.
Every morning at dawn the streets were alive with the racket of four cylinder engines, noisy gears and banging milk bottles, left on the front stoop, every other day.
