I like vinegar with my fries/chips. Guth may very well know what you meant by "chip" and "chip wagon" and was merely pondering if a vehicle smelling like french fries was bad or good. Then again, he probably had no clue whatsoever. 
There's a fairly famous drive-in near me called Superdawg. You eat in your car (generally) and order from a metal box with a speaker and microphone in it. Carhops (not on roller skates) bring your order to your car. Superdawg puts your meal in a small blue cardboard box which would include your entree (a hot dog or burger usually) and your fries. There's more that goes into the box and into the Superdawg experience, but the point here is that the blue box smells like what I imagine Nortoon describes as "the inside of a chip wagon".
When I was younger, but not very young, we would keep the blue Superdawg box when we finished our meal rather than leaving it for the carhop. After eating and usually this was late at night, we'd drive around looking for friends' cars which they may have unfortunately left unlocked. If we were lucky enough to find one, we would slide the Superdawg blue cardboard box under the seat. After a night-long steep, the car would smell like....well, the inside of a chip wagon, I think. We called this "Superdawging" a car and none of my friends from that era EVER leave their cars unlocked.
