I don't have an ice cream truck, but just from comparing images the ice cream truck has a front bumper versus no bumper on the regular '52 Chevy and the running boards aren't as wide on the ice cream truck either, making me think the body overall is wider. The castings were both designed by different people (Abe Lugo ice cream truck; Larry Wood '52 Chevy). There are a lot of differences, but that doesn't mean you can't make it work with a little bit of modification. They might still be fairly close.
