ICE CREAM VAN FOR SALE – $100,000 AUD
A Unique Opportunity – One of the Last Ice Cream Vans Built by a Veteran Ice Cream Van Maker
This is a very special ice cream van owned by an elderly friend of mine who is not very familiar with computers, so I am helping him advertise it.
He has been building ice cream vans and selling ice cream since 1976. Over the years, he has built Bedford ice cream vans and also worked at the Ford factory in Geelong.
Now that he is getting older, he would like to slow down and enjoy life a little more. This van is particularly special because it was his final ice cream van build, completed in 2025.
BASE VEHICLE
2016 Renault Master
Automatic transmission
168,000 km – genuine kilometres
Powerful diesel engine
Front-wheel drive
Reverse camera
Low floor design, making it easy to enter and operate
The serving window is also positioned relatively low, making it very convenient for children to order ice cream
MODERN ELECTRIC ICE CREAM VAN SYSTEM
The ice cream equipment has been designed with a modern battery-powered system.
Instead of using a traditional noisy petrol generator, this van uses a BYD Blade Battery system to power the ice cream equipment.
This provides some major advantages:
No noisy generator
No generator vibration
No generator exhaust fumes
Much quieter when serving customers
You can clearly hear customers when they are ordering
A much cleaner and more pleasant environment around the van
No generator heat to deal with
The lack of generator noise is especially useful when operating around children, schools, sporting clubs, parks, community events and private functions.
And because there is no petrol generator running inside or around the van, you don't have the usual problem of dealing with generator exhaust and significant waste heat.
A VERY SPECIAL VAN
This isn't just another second-hand ice cream van.
It represents the final build from someone who has spent nearly 50 years in the ice cream van business.
Built in 2025, it combines his decades of experience with a much more modern battery-powered design.
After almost 50 years of building and selling ice cream, he is now looking for the right person to take over his final creation.
RWC for transfer included.
