Something Missing?

The origins of Oren go hack to 1917 when Oren 0. Lemon opened an auto repair business and machine shop in Roanoke, VA, under the name of the Roanoke Welding Company. In 1927 the name of the company was changed to the Roanoke Welding and Equipment Company. This name gave a greater indication of the true nature of the firm, as by then they were offering truck bodies for sale along with their welding and other services.

In the mid-1930’s, the company began producing fire apparatus under the Roanoke Welding and Equipment Co. name. This soon gave way to the name Oren in the late 1930’s.
