E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart

Hot Dog Profits Premium Member Lew W. just did his first gig with his red, white, and blue E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart. You gotta see what Lew did graphics-wise. This is a work of art.

Hi Steve,

I know you really love to see all the hard work you’ve put into your site and videos come to fruition as another slinger builds a cart from your lead.

Patriot Franks is now an official business here in ‘lil ole Corinth, MS. My family did the Firearms Freedom Rally in Guntown, MS Saturday. The promoter told us there would be an attendance of about two thousand and in reality there was probably about 350.

The day started out terrible with heavy cold rain. But by 10:30 or so it cleared and got sunny. We still turned a couple hundred dollars profit. Not too bad for our first time out.

The cart you designed ran flawlessly. In fact when I had it inspected last Friday the inspector kept telling me it was the “kewlest” thing he’d seen in a long time. He gave the cart a 100!

As a kind of nice accident there was local news coverage of the firearms freedom event as there were state candidates running in national senate primaries at the rally. 

We have secured a site across the street from one of our major grocery stores, right before a signaled intersection that Google streets says gets 7500 cars a day traffic. We’ll be setting up there for the first day of our Mon – Fri business tomorrow. I’ve attached plenty of pics from the rally. (Will send a couple emails to get em all to ya)  Feel free to use as you wish.

Steve, the motto on our cart says “Taste American Liberty”, with your help I’ve realized that dream for myself and my family. Thank you so much! Even though we’ve never met face to face I’ll always consider you a close friend.

Beautiful E-Z Built Hot Dog Cart Lew! I really like what you did with the red, white, and blue theme. That flag graphic is awesome!

I also love the blue painted fenders and the graphic that continues around the sink. Your attention to detail made such a huge difference.

The Family that Slings Together…  I know how much you must have enjoyed selling those tasty looking hot dogs with your daughters. I run my own cart with my oldest girl on occasion. She loves slingin as much as I do and we have such fun together. It’s a great way to spend a few hours of quality time with our kids and teach them about the rewards of honest work in the process.

The Theme of Your Cart Says it All. Lew, you have the freedom to start a small business because that right has been constantly protected by our brave men and women in uniform. They also fight for our right to bear arms, and our right to peaceably assemble. All three of these rights were proudly on display at the rally you were slinging at.

Thanks for taking part in such an important event. I am honored to have been been part of it in my own small way. I wish you the best of luck going forward, and let me know if you ever need anything my slinger brother!
