The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk muffler, which one is correct

Thanks Denny, George works for the county, he has a mobile welding setup and does all my welding. I did all the fabrication cutting all the metal and setting up for him to weld, he charges $75.00 hr. Fastenal is a shipping company, which Waldron Exhaust offers then going thru UPS. I saved about $50.00 by going with Fastenal. The muffler sealer was probably a over kill, not needed. The pipes fitted nice and tight on the muffler. The Good Humor truck is a reproduction that I design after the Danbury mint die cast 1:24 scale model. There is no blue prints for these trucks, not from the hackney brothers I could find. I found a company in long beach that makes a fiberglass reproduction of the old school Good Humor freezer boxes. It has two cold plates in the freezer box which I plug into a 120 volt outlet and charge 12 hours to a minus 5- degrees.I use a inverter to run the freezer box to maintain a charge. I wanted to do something different then just restore my 52 3100. I wanted to stand out and be different, why not a Good Humor Truck. I have now my ice cream business license. I`m a hit at the shows with everyone. I even dress up as the Good Humor Man. Finding the original hat pin and badge name tag from a retired Good Humor Man. I stock the truck with all Good Humor ice cream bars- toasted almond-strawberry cake-birthday cake- snow cones, etc
In one month after 3 years building this ice cream truck its one best of show at ATHS, first place at ford mustang show event, a photo shoot with Delicious Doll magazine , business offers for special appearances. Retired after 28 years at Caesars Palace as a in house maintenance painter. And now the Good humor Man. I should setup a gallery with the truck. I added more pictures of the curved exhaust pipe on the
earlier post.
