Biographical History
This York County firm was one of the earliest makers of truck bodies and school bus bodies in South Carolina and for many years was one of the largest producers in the Southeast. Founder J.C. Hardin had been an employee of the Rock Hill Buggy Company and withdrew about 1916 when it was converted to the Anderson Motor Car Company to begin his own business repairing buggies and wagons on Black Street in downtown Rock Hill. By the early 1920s, Hardin had begun expanding his operations to include assembly of custom auto and truck bodies and later added school bus bodies to the line.
