The property and equipment of bankrupt truck body and trailer maker Thiele Manufacturing will be auctioned Nov. 30 by Maas Companies in Windber, Pa.
A court-appointed trustee shut the company down earlier this year. It filed for bankruptcy protection in 2008, eventually eliminating more than 100 jobs.
