I was looking at the current OGR and I really like the new Divco trucks. I'd love to see one decorated for Del's Lemonade a Northeast institution. With the days warming up who could refuse a half frozen Lemonade slushy. They still maintain a fleet of this style Divco truck and use them every season.

Don is right, its not that hard to make your own decals. Get the decal sheet from Micromark or Decal Paper.com:

Print them on your inkjet printer To apply them, be sure to follow the instructions, particulary the sealing them with Testors decal bonder or VERY ligh coats of Dullcoat.  Don't over do the sealer, so the decal stays flexible.

 

The hardest part may be getting the artwork, and it looks like Don took care of that for you.

 

Here is a DIVCO I decorated for our local dairy in the mid 50's: I got the artwork from an old Milk Box

Dels Lemonade! That brings back childhood memories when I was growing up in Rhode Island. I remember paying 10 cents a cup! 

Great minds think alike!  I thought about this just a few minutes ago.  I remember seeing those Cloverland Divcos as a kid.  The Cloverland distributor used to give away free plastic cows.  Cloverland billed itself as "the dairy with cows."  Thanks for the memories!Originally Posted by Al W.:

I would like a Cloverland Dairy (Baltimore) Divco truck.

 

Was that Thompsons Dairy  of Washington DC.?
