Victor Motor Truck Co. 1910-1914 - Buffalo, New York


   

This was an overly-ambitious manufacturer who, for 1911 offered delivery vans in five different six sizes as well as an ambulance, hearse, police patrol wagon, and fire apparatus as well as sight-seeing buses. The line of trucks for 1912 listed no less than seven sizes from a 1-tonner to a 10-­tonner. For the last two model-years, only 3- and 5-tonners were offered. The 5-tonner used dual 40 X 6 solid tires at the rear.
