Nice job
It appears the business that bay belong to is no longer in business (their FB page no longer exists), some sort of hipster store, not sure where the icy comes into play.

Spotted the Wildflower Truck (see http://www.wildflowertruck.com/ ) in Somerville MA but it was mobbed with customers so I only stopped for a look. It's a lovely '68 single cab, even prettier (to some) than its payload of flowers.
I didn't have a chance to get a picture so here's one from their own website:

Wait, isnt that a “camper” ? Like with beds and shit inside. _________________ You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer. Zappa

Spotted in Swansea MA
I had never seen this one around here, pretty nice. seems like a genuine Westfalia, not a camper-ized standard or deluxe bus. I pulled up next to it and grabbed a few shots.. Certainly a repaint, if that's Montana red I never realized it was so bright.
And yes, nearly everywhere I go, people see the old business logo painted on my bus and ask me if I take unwanted pianos away, or buy pianos, or tune them, and I'm like "uh, that was like 50 years ago." _________________ 1970 Commercial Kombi

I do. Just leave it in the driveway and give me the keys. _________________ .ssS! |
