Cabover on a conventional chassis?

Yeah OK Lego, For PURE SHOCK VALUE, that fugly creature is worth it. Only problem is you'd have to drive it with a paper bag on your head, less a friend sees you behind the wheel! And I think DOT would have a problem with that.

 

Two days later and that still cracks me up

 

Btt

The original question was...will a cabover body fit a conventional frame?

I'm curious as well. I'm thinking there will be mostly just brackets to add. Are the frame widths the same?

 

before the recession there were container hauling popular in ex-USSR and some trucktors of conv. design were converted to 20' container haulers. they used to shorten cab ore install cab from junk UK trucks like ERF ore from European trucks, install BDF subframe and use them as 20' container haulers.

Canadian Mamoth is made with the same way

 

Talk about inspection magnet.

 

Aren't all Freightliners inspection magnets?

My 362 has a sub front frame . So it's wider then 34". Mine is just bottled together. So I just purchased a parts truck. With a long frame. Ounce I rebuild the rear ends and paint. I will fir up the cutting torch.
