On an extra cab that I've got for parts all data plates have been removed
except for one that is rivoted to the glove box lid. Around a 1952 M35
Reo gas. It is marked as;

United States of America Agency of International Development.
Nomen. Air compressor
Stock Number. 3820-641-7779
Serial Number. 2151251
Manufacturer. Lerol
Model. 210 GI
Length. 275"
Width. 97"
Height. 96"
Capasity of Payload. 100psi 200cfm
Shipping Weight. 16300
Also at the bottom is. UP 8R36

Can anyone guess at some history of this truck from this information?
I've never heard of the Agency of International Development.
I don't understand the air compressor, truck specs mix.
It was also owned by the BIA at some time.

Thanks
