    I did that with a 1950 chevy truck, and it had ancient army 4x4 drivetrain. The cab rusted loose so just removed it and mounted a seat on the frame. Made a small engine powered winch on the back to tow in logs. Took it camping back in the wilderness once, across rivers and through mud and rock piles. But I abused it and broke it so bad I finally gave up fixing it and parted it out.

    A friend of mine built what he called the 'Cadiddle' back in 1967-ish. It was a Cadillac of course, basically cut in half lengthwise, welded back together, now maybe 8-10 feet in length. Horrible ride with that short wheelbase. Had something like a 440 or 454 GM big block. It would do wheelies in a heartbeat. I drove it once, I almost flipped it! This car is definitely longer and weaker.
