My son found a 1947 Chevy 2 ton flatbed truck. So we are now going about deciding on specific equipment. Can you recommend good brands and reputable vendors. From appliances to water tanks.
My son is looking to run everything off a generator. Hot water heater, water pump, refrigerator. Not written in stone yet. Though when truck is at location he plans on using extension cords from a building and when at home the same way.
When in transit/driving to the events location he plans on running the generator to keep the refrigerator cold. He plans on mounting the generator in a metal cabinet underneath the flatbed with louvers to allow air in for the engine to run and provide air to cool the generator engine. Is it feasible to operate the generator that way.
Plumbing materials:
What type of hose/pipe should be used when connecting the potable water tank to the water pump, water heater, faucets? Should we use the white rv water hose that keeps the water from tasting bad? Can that hose be used to carry hot water from the tank to the sink?
The best material to connect sink drains to the grew water tank? Rubber hose? PVC?
If we decide to go with a propane water heater can that be running/on when the truck is being driven? What is the best material to connect the propane tank to the water heater?
We are estimating that we will have to carry 20 gals of fresh water. What size propane tank would we need? How long would a 20lb tank last making hot water?
Again thanks to everyone.
