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!

Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum
Fri, 02 May 2014Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra debut all-new designs, three new engines
Thu, 13 Dec 2012General Motors has finally dropped the curtain on the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra. Both trucks have undergone substantial revisions with updated versions of the company's 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 engines. In a shot across the bows of both Ford and Chrysler, GM says it won't use a V6 engine adapted from passenger car applications. Instead, it developed the 4.3-liter engine based on its proven truck-duty architecture.
All three mills will boast direct injection fuel systems as well as a new cylinder head design. Combined with a revised piston, the new engines feature a smaller combustion chamber with a compression ratio of 11:1 or higher depending on the application. Cylinder deactivation and continuously variable valve timing are all part of the recipe, and each engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission with auto grade breaking. So far, no fuel economy or horsepower figures have been released, though GM says the new engines will best their predecessors in both areas.
Outside, the trucks feature a number of enhancements to reduce drag and wind noise, and GM claims both the Silverado and Sierra will offer buyers some of the quietest cabins in the class. Extended cab models now feature front-hinged rear doors to allow easier access to the back passenger area, and Crew Cab buyers can now select between a five-foot, eight-inch bed or a six-foot, six-inch bed. Buyers with a mind toward going off road will also rejoice in the return of the Z71 package, complete with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and additional under-body protection.
