Ärende: REO TRUCKS   10915
==========================
 -=> Quoting Dave Drum to Glen Jamieson <=-

 GJ> Reo trucks had a good reputation here.  I think Generous Motors bought
 GJ> them out eventually.

 DD> Not hardly - they bought the original Oldsmobile company. Which Olds
 DD> had sold to a group of investors as the Olds Motor Works. It became
 DD> Oldsmobile after being combined with Buick and Cadillac as a founding
 DD> division of General Motors. Pontiac and Chevrolet came along later -
 DD> after the Chevrolet brothers, Louis and Gaston finished up a run of
 DD> making speed parts for Ford Model T vehicles. The Pontiac line was
 DD> originally known as the Oakland. 

I remember seeing Oaklands here, when I was younger; also Pontiacs.

 DD> The REO Motor Car Company was a Lansing, Michigan based company that
 DD> produced automobiles and trucks from 1905 to 1975. At one point the
 DD> company also manufactured buses on its truck platforms.

I don't suppose that town had anything to do with the Lansing Bulldog
tractors?  Single cylinder hot bulb engines that were started with a
cartridge, and would run on almost anything, including the lanoline
skimmed off the wool scouring vats.

 DD> In 1954, the company was under-performing, and sold vehicle
 DD> manufacturing operations (the primary asset of the company) to the Bohn
 DD> Aluminum and Brass Company of Detroit. Three years later, in 1957, it
 DD> became a subsidiary of the White Motor Company. White then merged REO
 DD> with Diamond T Trucks in 1967 to form Diamond-Reo Trucks, Inc. In 1975,
 DD> this company filed for bankruptcy in the
 DD> Western District of Michigan and most of its assets were liquidated.

Diamond T trucks were well-known here, and of course White is still
going.

 DD> The band REO Speedwagon started out as a garage band, based in the
 DD> university town of Champaign, IL. They used to perform at local venues
 DD> for drinks and whatever was in the hat -- until they got rich and
 DD> famous. I saw them many times in places local to me. 

An interesting personal association.  Thanks for that potted history
of Olds and his associates.  Those were exciting days in motoring
history.
