Hey guys I need to make a scary ice cream truck for the haunt this year but have zero idea where to start or what to do. Again the hayride is for the zoo which is non for profit so alot of what we do for it comes out of our own pocket as far as building supplies, costumes etc. So my question is where do I start??? I was thinking like an old like snack truck ( lays chips etc.)

Just did some searching and there are some old ice cream trucks for sale! That would be perfect so you do not have to convert another type of truck into an ice cream truck. I bet this would be the most cost effective way to go. What type of design are you really shooting for?David "Pug" DeChamps

Is it a static prop that will just be viewed? Something simple like this would be easy to fabricate with some plywood and old tires.

Well there ya go!
Just use plywood, and some 2x5's. Build a frame out of 2x4's and then cover your frame in wood, even cheap luan would suffice, because once you paint it with a latex based paint, it'll weatherproof it enough to the point where it won't matter what wood you use to cover it...you could probably do something halfway decent that way for about $100 or so...
