Ever see on of these?
Turned around in a driveway and saw this. Looks like a 1957 chevy Ice Cream truck. I wonder if it was ordered as a cab and chassis. Rare??

That would make an interesting camper/tow rig.
I think you nailed it on the cab and chassis deal and there is probably a tag on the inside of the body with the body builder's info on it. |

Probably custom body made from this. The Factory Assy manual shows them shipped with the steering wheel supported with a wood frame and a box of misc parts.

If I go back, I'll get the vin #. If he would sell, what would be a fair offer?
