That's cool. I wonder if kids aroud here even know what a Icecream truck looks like. They probaly think they're all '78 Econolines.

Man that is cool and sweet as the ice cream it used to deliver! Can't wait to see the final look of those two rides.

Damn that's sick.

And I'd love to see the progress on the 1:1 too!

Great stuff.

one of the things that stuck with me after seeing "borat" was how much i'd love one of those milk trucks!

great work on both rides

Must serve some nice Ice-cream from such a sweet truck

i had the same question about if kids know what a real ice cream truck looks like, all the ice cream trucks around here are econoline vans that used to be old bell south vans,

but when i hit the street in mine they are going to drop the other guy for sure, i have some custom lowered u bolts and blocks i am putting in the rear and the front will drop via the torsion bars. put my rims on with some cool paint

i cant wait for the weather to clear up so i can finish it and ride...

That is one slaming ride man love the work you have put into it and I love the short van! I had a bread van with a 305 in it but it was long and I was not happy with the look!

That thing busts every Ice Cream truck around!

Your scale ride is great too man love the colors now you just need an evil clown driving it!

here are the latest on the ice cream truck bit/s
still need to add some headlights and a grill, and some lil stuff but its really looking nice, i ended up taking the paint off from the earlier pict and i made some water slide decals for it instead! i think that it is awsome.

Am I the only one that hears "Ice Cream Man" By David Lee Roth?
