[race14race]

Hi I am looking for a used taco cart, But I was wondering what they were marketed for, and when did they stop being made?

Thanks

That seems like a deal. Glad its not close, I don't need another project.

As far as what industry were they geared towards, what about aircraft mechanics? Roll out to plane and you would have acess to all sides of the box. Could be used in any industry where box was out in the open shop and not jammed up against the wall. Heavy Equip maybe?

I worked with a guy one time who got all defensive and pissed off when I said "sweet taco box". He was like "At least mine's a Snap on, its better than your Mac P.O.S.".

I guess he thought I was trying to insult his toolbox. Kind of a grumpy fellow all around though.

Mine used to be known as "The Gay Trolley" (Trolley = cart)

The second one was also known as the BBQ.

Mine is for sale, not sure on the exact model. 350 bucks. Drawer slides need some work, butcher block is rough, but there. Rolls around the shop really well. Probably needs the slides completely cleaned and graphite lube.

Here's a couple pics of a very nice Taco Wagon I saw on ebay a little while back. This one was manufactured in 1983.

I like the taco box....

 

[supertooljunkie]

They multi-task. Like to have one if I had the room to put it in.

I think it looks awesome. If i had one i'd have a big vinyl sticker on the back of a taco or hotdog to make it look like a food cart, just for fun.

That is definitely one of the nicest taco boxes I've ever seen.

My buddy bought one in a local pawn shop last year that looks just about the same condition as the one Galaxie posted. They'd had it on the floor for over a year, had it marked $1500 or something - he said "I'll give you $600" and the manager said "You know what? I'm tired of walking around it. Get it out of here and you got a deal."

We never knew it was a "Taco Cart" until I saw this thread though! His is a KR562D though - does the letter suffix tell you what year it is?
