esataup ◊ 2013-06-16 22:38	If you look at the picture you can see the IVECO brand under the windshield.
Weasel1984 ◊ 2013-06-16 22:39	The silver "I"? It doesn't indicate the brand, but the fact that this manufacturer belongs to the "Iveco Group".
esataup ◊ 2013-06-17 01:40	The code of approval issued by the DMV indicates Iveco / Fiat 370 12/26 Menarini
Weasel1984 ◊ 2013-06-17 16:35	They are usually mentioned this way in various databases. Especially in case of some models produced back then under few brands (belonging to IVECO) it can makes some sense - so there is some generic name for the IVECO Group product. But IVECO wasn't a commercial name till 1982 (+/- one year), what confirms promo-materials, brochures etc. from the 2nd half of the 1970s, where specific vehicles are called (starting from the cover) Fiat, OM, MD etc. + model name and not Iveco-Fiat. It was like that in all of these I was able to see - there were quite many of them. -- Last edit: 2013-06-17 16:52:50
