Project description: Jenkins Diesel Power Inc. is rebranding to Jenkins Truck Center and relocating with a new building on the city’s west side. The full-service heavy-duty truck dealership currently operates at its original site, 1845 E. Blaine St., where Ed Jenkins started the company 65 years ago. Jim Jenkins, one of Ed’s sons, said the new location increases visibility and consolidates truck sales, parts and service into one building.
