The next-generation Classic Service Van (CSV) from Reading Truck Body is designed to meet the need for a lightweight, corrosion resistant aluminum service body. The CSV57 and CSV75 models, which the manufacturer says are over 50% lighter than comparable steel bodies, feature a welded design and aluminum alloy and extrusions. The bodies are 210 lbs. lighter than previous generations, and were designed with a universal understructure for GM and Ford cutaway chassis, the company added.
The CSV line continues to include features such as a seamless wheelhouse panel, shuttle panel pass through, flush mount floor to threshold channel, Reading’s patented hidden hinge technology with recessed and concealed hardware, and LED lighting. Optional security systems available for the CSV include a master locking system or the Reading Latch-Matic system.
