Indiana Truck Corporation

The Indiana Truck Corporation of Cleveland, was a truck manufacturer.

History

Originally, the company was a manufacturer of mattresses and bed springs from 1898. This production continued throughout all the years until the end. The company produced its first truck in Marion, Indiana in 1910. The first Indiana 'Truck No. 1001' was manufactured with a four-cylinder Rutenber gasoline engine with a displacement of 3300 cc, solid rubber tires, and the rear axle was driven by chains. In 1917, four times as many trucks were sold compared to 1916. In 1927, the company was sold to Brockway Motor Company. In 1936, 1,706 vehicles were sold. After that, the numbers steadily declined. Indiana trucks were assembled until 1939.
