From steve

“Darley had a few rigs on order using the 1871W cab and chassis when Hendrickson sold that product line to Kovatch Mobile Equipment. Therefore, a handful were delivered with KME nomenclature.

While I know of at least three of these, there were probably no more than a handful were delivered.
