The company was founded by Wayne Weaver and Lewis Martin, in a small garage in Hinkletown, Pennsylvania. The pair started with building backyard storage sheds in the early 1960s, and then later built a truck camper for Wayne Weaver's cross-country honeymoon trip in 1964. After the trip, they decided to expand the business and build more truck campers in Schoeneck. Production outgrew that facility and prompted a move to Akron in 1967.
