I remember seeing the bus on a TV show about odd vehicles.
the hardest part about building it was the heigh. the first rendition was something like 15 foot so they had to cut it down to only one row of windows to get bridge clearances

At least the - looks dark green on my monitor - truck has a fairly common/proven suspension system. Also, those are clearly transport tires.
I keep looking at the red truck hoping it is a photoshopped image. (doesn't look like it is) I just can't see how those springs are going to provide a stable platform. They will have way too much forward-to-back flex and not enough up-and-down. And probably a lot more right-to-left than the owner anticipates. I just don't see solid engineering there.
Again, a waste of perfectly good Rockwell axles.

well, seeing as the all jacked up does not have driveshafts, it aint going anywhere at all. at least the bottom pic has shafts in it. the angles are so severe it will not go very far but it at least has them.

A Ford Super Duty sedan. Yes, it's real. No, it's not photoshopped. It's Brazilian. Need I say more? https://www.thedrive.com/news/38494/...ck-car-mashups
