    I would just leave it alone. Slam it with airbags and put in a mildly built powerplant and flake the shit out of it! Or, just leave it white! You have any pics of it? I just got outbid on a Mattel one that was all customized on.....need I say where? KNUX!

    http://oldcarandtruckpictures.com/Divco/ pics. interesting Note,

    The first pic, that dairy is in my hometown, i never heard of it, but it might of been a truck my grandpa fixed. My father use to tell me he use to jump from divco roof, to divco roof behind his house, and would fall in the pricker bush's hehe, im way to young to have seen that dairy still in buisiness, damn i love local history..

    You'll notice that not one of the those Divco trucks had the 18"s that that were run @ the lakes in the late 40's. I think that people get the Ford Milk Truck (which a 39 was shown on the Divco site) confused with the Divco brand and back in the day people just called em Milk truck wheels and somewhere along the line the Divco name just came into the mix.

    Sure did like those Helms truck though! They'd be a cool lil shop truck.
