It’s hard to capture my attention, especially when it comes to lowriders. I’m by no means a car snob, but I tend to look for unique and sometimes strange builds. While everyone else is looking at the latest and greatest builds, I’m looking for cars that connect with my curiosity. I’m more interested in the backstory of the build than the amount of money spent or the laundry list of Grade-A talent they hired. Then again, that’s probably why they hired me for this job. So when the random oddity appears, I can’t help but trip the f*ck out, and that’s exactly what happened when I stumbled across this open cab, 1954 3100 Ice Cream Truck.
It’s not every day you see a vintage ice cream truck, let alone one that’s been laid flat on the floor with wire wheels, and to be honest, I didn’t even see the truck. I heard it. Off in the distance, I heard Rock and Roll Gangster by Aalon. It’s a song I hold close to my heart, so as my ears followed the scream of speakers pushing way past its comfort zone, I spotted a small crowd gathered around something I had never seen before, and there it was—a vintage ice cream truck. This alone made my trip to the No Man’s Land Cruise Nite worth it.
