The Morris J Van was a popular choice for ice cream vans and our model features a very high level of detail with a great number of print and masking operations to achieve the authentic finish. With a basic cream body colour, black chassis and red roof panel, warm red and orange stripes feature along the side panels and front of the van. The two colours are also used for all the dropped shadow printing. The interior, including the steering wheel, is cream and the seating is red. The radiator is cream with black grille grate and the Morris badge is incorporated in silver. Even the wheels are given detailed treatment with yellow hubs and silver trim and wheel centres. Registered YHT 511, the van boasts All Outdoor Events Catered For printed across the back doors and the model is finished off with a colourful image of children and an ice cream cone on both sides behind the rear wheels.
