I am turning a 1968 24' Holiday ramber into a Pizza concession stand

Yes you read that correctly...I am turning my forever family owned into a pizza concession trailer with all old family  recipes. I re did my gulf stream Fema trailer into a nice RV i added windows its now self contained and i just love it. so i have been doing food feasts for a few years now and instead of selling my family's old rv id put it to good use. so far i have completely gutted it,and let me tell you something. They really don't make them like they use to.. i mean the camper is older than me and just a 4x4' section of the floor needed to be puled up that was rotten anyway. the rest of the floor and everythig is solid all these years and no water damage anywhere els.Now i know this is not your typical rehab. but its been in the family since it came off the line and im doing a complete overhaul. im redoing the exterior with a sharp 50's style  black and white look. airbrush on the outside pizza hubcaps. i will be able to pass this down to my son daughter or nephew .

well if there are any intrests or even anyone who maybe did the same type of thing.

let me know and i wlii post pics if i see some intarest.

I think this is GREAT! I would love to see photos! There are a ton of these sorts of rehabs in Oregon (Portland area) and so much fun!

Thank you all i will post some photos throughout the project right to the final touch. in a day or so i will post the before and now the gutted trailer. i will be taking my time on this it has to be perfect on the inside for health inspector reasons. and the outside will have to have a perfect design on it and paint job. some fairs are goofy and wont let you in if your trailer don't look perfect on the outside. so I would like to ask your advise on the exterior.... should i buy the flat sheet metal you would see on a landscape trailer and put that up? OR.. should i try to find the siding i have on the trailer? The exterior is in great shape but i do have to close off some windows and and build some custom ones for the Order here and pick up window. but the door side i will have one small window just for show . so i have quite a bit to cover up. so Help me out people the exterior can be a Good old RVers collaboration. i have to paint it and airbrush it. it has to look good. ill take any ideas tossed my way from the paint to the design.
Thanks for the interest this will be a fun journey.

I don't know about the siding, but if you are looking for a great resource for artists, you might check out your local art college OR tattoo shop. The detail that tattoo artists put into things is amazing... (my eldest daughter worked for Dino Cook--Jesse James artist). They might be able to get you started at least.

Since this is a family rig, maybe some cool family photos transfered or something... I think this is so cool that you are using this in this manner! Good luck!
