Convoy Company (The trucking Co.) modified the Ford Trucks themselves, the only ones I've seen were operated by them.

Hey, man, THAT is a keen bit of info there. Amazing that things in NYC really were pretty similar to today! All that rush-rush, tight schedule, occasional WIND all probably helps to explain why a life was lost, on average, per floor! THANKS for the post, buddy, and I ain't getting rich, either!!!! LOL Jimi

No dice in the '50s? Baloney. In fact, my dad had a skull on the mirror of his '49 Chevy, too.

Right, Bowtie, I think some called it a coupe-pickup. I know Studebaker did it too. Pretty cool! Seems as though very FEW of these survive!!!!
