Finding Information on a 1990 Midway Truck Coach Step Van

How to Research Your 1990 Midway Step Van

Midway Truck Coach (a now-defunct Indiana manufacturer) produced step vans on various chassis. To learn about your specific unit:

1. Contact Midway (or successor) – Try Midway Truck Equipment (current entity) for archives or referrals.
2. DMV / Title Records – The state DMV holds the VIN, weight class, and build data.
3. Locate the VIN Plate – Usually on driver's door frame, dashboard, or frame rail. Decode via NHTSA VIN decoder or commercial services (e.g., TruckVIN, DecodeThis).
4. Previous Owners – May have manuals, maintenance logs, or build sheets.
5. Online Communities – Forums like TruckNet, Pirate4x4, or Facebook groups for vintage delivery vans often have Midway owners.

Midway vans typically used Ford, Chevrolet, or International Harvester chassis; identifying the chassis VIN unlocks chassis-specific specs.
