I picked this thing up and basically going to scrap it out. It was an ice cream truck last I think and I do not have the title.

I'm posting on here to see if anyone sees any value in this thing before the crusher.

This is not a sale post. If there is some interest I will post in proper place.

Thanks

Hi there
Before you scrap it, look at this image from Australia

Oh. I'm sure it could be redone and look awesome. I got a 49 Chevy I'm not working on, a 36 International I'm trying to work on and an acre of projects to get to.

Both side of this thing are fubar. The diver side is caved in a little and the passenger side is pushed out. And no title or motor

It is worth more than scrap to someone. If it were mine I'd post it for double (or a little more) of the estimated scrap price and see what happens. I've had real good luck with craigslist in the past. If it doesn't sell in 30 days take down the ad and post it again in a few months. That is unless you're hurting for space and it has to go now.

Good luck and let us know what happens.

John

It has 2 rims that are 17.5" non split rim, a 17" split rim and a 16.5" wheel on it. I wasn't sure if those had any value either??
