Did you see the other 3 under chapmans take away? We are up and running building since oct 31 2013. We are on face book under chapmans take away. It is all new but we are learning real fast! Good luck!
I am sure it can be done. Problem would be you would have a hard time doing events with parking. Parks and down towns Would probably not envite you. You would have to park in large parking lots. It would be interesting!
i was wondering where it was that you folks bought your trucks parts. you mentioned you got good deals on things like the window and all that. any chance y'all could tell me where you got it?
Like a new construction. On my window there is a lip I screwed on my metal framing. So measure on the inside of the lip. the over hang will go on the out side of your truck. We also siliconed around the window for leaks, placed it screwed it to the truck frame. We built a frame for the window to be screwed to then welded it in place. If you bought a house type window which is lighter, you may not need to build the frame.

hey John. Ebay was the cheapest. was free shipping too. look in older comments I gave a link.....if you can find one with a shorter hieght...... I like the length but the height takes up alot of the wall/ shelf space I vould of had the people do love being able to see in snd see the cleanliness of the truck......they love to smell/sniff at the window. . they love to watch us cooking.

Where did you buy the concession window from?
how did you measure the window to cut

What paint did you use for the interior?
Bryce Harvey our neighbor sprayed in tractor supply farm paint, has been durable, no flaking and very washable. White, they have many colors.

We have now painted it this last summer. Candy red and cream looks like a 57 Chevy! Our Facebook is under CHAPMAN'S TAKE AWAY food truck.
