Converto Mfg. Co.
Cambridge City, Indiana
    The Convertainer system is a lugger truck with various sizes of detachable containers. In 1961, the product line was joined by a front loader through an arrangement with the S. Vincen Bowles Company of California. The Converto-Bowles line soon added the Load-n-Pack drop-frame side loader, but the Bowles products were discontinued by the end of the decade. The Convertainer and Leaveatainer roll-off remain in production at Cambridge City.
