Has anyone ever mounted a smoker to a vehicle frame?
I have an old RV that I was thinking about converting into a smoker.
I am looking for some thoughts and suggestions.
 
I think the only thing I would worry about is the gas tank & gas lines running to the engine.

Fire & gasoline is not a good thing!

I've actually thought about it but never taken any action on it.  I love the idea and think it could be done safely.  Then again I am a bit of a redneck and think things like that are way cool so I say "YOU CAN DO IT!!"

"Hode ma beer whilst I far this thang up!"
 
Here is the old RV I am thinking of using.


Thinking of removing the camper and building a deck on the frame with some fold down steps. Could reuse the water tanks and set up a sink.

Please keep sharing your thoughts.

I am sure it will take some redneck ingenuity to make it happen.
 
If you can safely have a Propane Stove in the camper, ain't no reason you can't have a Smoker. Add a Still for some Shine and you got a Party Wagon...JJ
 
I don't know how the propane lines were protected in a vehicle. In my Motor Home tubing transferred the propane from tank to reefer and stove,. in the event of an accident and tubing was cut you would have a steady flow of gas just waiting for a spark. Turnoff the propane and the reefer worked off the battery. Did  everyone do the safe thing? I did.
 

This is the smoker I would mount on the RV if I descide to try it.
The old Dodge runs pretty good but the camper is in pretty rough shape. Anyone want it to make a hunting blind?

Does anyone have any pictures of a smoker mounted on a truck or RV?

I need a big shop so I can make this a winter project.
