    My daughter went on a delivery today and saw something hidden in the bushes behind a residence just a few blocks off Main Street, she ask if she could look and the lady said OK, she said it was there when lady bought the house years ago.

    I'm curious as to what it is . HRP

    What arkie said. What we referred to as a step van when I worked as a mechanic at a dairy in the mid '70's

    You're right about it being a Boyerton, but the Chevy emblem on the OP as well as choffman41's photo would say Chevrolet.

    Growing up seeing the old bread & milk trucks was nothing unusual with home delivery's in the rural South but I don't recall seeing a Boyertown truck.

    I do remember the Fords, Metro's & Grumman step vans but this is a first. HRP

    I agree with the above in that it has a 54 Chevy truck hood emblem on it, so probably Chevy powered. Looks extra snakey!:eek:
