How would this work for a shop truck?

[SqueeGee]

I might have the opportunity to buy a truck or van from a glass company at a good price. They have racks on them for carrying glass and I was thinking that might be a pretty good fit for a shop truck. We could just throw a 4'x8' sign in the rack and the posts on the truck(or on the roof rack of the van) when we go out for an install. Has anyone else tried this? Will/does it work?

Attached is a pic of something similar to what I'm talking about.

I thought about that before...Even just having one side.

Don't see why not. Make an easy mobile billboard, too.

If it is sturdy enough it is a scaffold as well.

Cool! Do you find that you have to protect the sign face from getting scuffed/scarred by the pieces on the rack that hold the sign in place? How big of a sign can you put in there(height x width)? How thick? Is a pan face too thick?

Now that right there looks like the ULTIMATE sign install rig in my opinion.

Good job!

Looks like the rack they use to carry glass. Very sturdy.

Depends on how much you plan to install with it. Lately for us its been channel letters and a lot of cabinet installs. For us if its something you can carry in a truck the customer generally doesnt want to pay to install.
