wow that sounds cool, mid mount would be a bit project, but i spose there no limit to the imagination, with technology today designing parts is a bit easier.
yeah there are some real custom mini trucks kikin round.
my mates son ended up building a tray with big tubs for his one, the rear tyres run nearly half under the tray it looks sweet, it's all on hinges so he can lift it to change a tyre or whatever. i'll get a pic one day and send it through to ya...
