Do doodlebugs count as oddballs?

I saw this one today elsewhere online. Pretty odd I thought... Apparently it lives around Dallas.

Looks like this truck was originally a 1930 Model AA, the roadster pickup on the back of it is a 1928 or 1929 Model A.

Wow! That was a great run. I once had a Hoover vacuum like that. Ir was totally spherical with a saucer shaped base. The exhaust air was expelled through small holes in the saucer base, thus turning the vacuum into a small hovercraft. It rode on a cushion of air and could be pulled effortlessly in any direction. Got it at the dump. Wife wasn't as excited as I was......Thanks again for the really fun bunch of photos here.

Here are some Oddball trucks from "South of the Border". I don't know if these trucks are US made or Brazilian produced. I would think the Cuban trucks came from the US before Castro and the Commies took it over in 59.

From Argentina: it looks like a fiberglass front end...


The next two are people movers from Cuba:






The next three are from Colombia:
