This is a real nice ice cream snack truck. I got the idea to build this because the trucks in my neighborhood are very low budget and look like s*#t. I bought 2 school bus vans at a sale in Wisconsin and turned one into this ice cream truck.
The motor is a GM 6.0 liter V-8. Has over 200k miles but runs great, strong and very quiet! No oil leaks and does not burn any either. Fleet maintained by strict standards of Wisc. DOT. All tires are newer....80% or better. Drives straight down the road. The paint is new and so are the decals. It still has room for your company name all over it. Strobe light works for attention at fairs, football games or night time use. This truck can bring in a ton of $$$$ cash per day.
I used Sears Kenmore fridge and deep freezer. Now, my reason for a deep freezer over a cold plate is this: if you buy those large cooler packs and line the bottom up to about 8" thick, you'll get the same results and no unloading at night. just plug it in and leave it on. The fridge is there for cold candy bars, water, pop and what ever else, plus more freezer room on top. I have chip clips for bags, cotton candy? This is a dual battery set up with an isolator. so you will not run the truck battery dead, ever! The isolator lets the alternator charge both the truck and the deep cycle inverter batteries at the same time. The bus already has a high output 100 amp alt. on it. 10,000 watt power inverter that is fan cooled and is ready for work!
This bus gives you plenty of room and head room to stand up in. Room to grow too! I put a 4' light and table in it as well.
The music box is a real metal unit not some cheap plastic version from China. It is seriously loud too!
The service shop checked it all over, rear brakes at 50% or better. Fronts brakes have new pads and rotors! Shocks are fine and exhaust is too.
This is a nice truck for the money and one good season can pay for the truck and then some.
If your local come look at it, drive it or hear it run! This is for sale locally so I may end the sale early if it sells on the street.
I have stored it indoors and mice free!

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.
Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
