Long six wheel mixture of a vehicle.

That's one hell of a hearse! Is it normally used for dead basket ball players?

The Oldsmobile Toranado grille makes me wonder if they were inspired by this monstrosity

That is no monstrosity, man, it's freaking fabulous

They might be, or they might have used a Toronado power package and decided to use the front clip. It's probably easier to make a limo with a Toronado than it is the truck that thing started out as because it's front wheel drive, so there's no need for a custom driveshaft. Just extend the brake lines and frame as long as is needed.

Yep. You get easily get a 455ci FWD system into whatever by using the Toro's package. Which gives you more than enough power and torque to move whatever monstrosity you attached it to.

I wonder if they started with the GMC Motorhome frame. The wheelbase looks similar.

That's also a possibility. Doesn't explain the Toronado front clip though.

_ItsMe_@reddit

I believe they shared the same drive train so I guess it makes sense to put the front clip on

[-]

Count_Dongula@reddit

I get that, but I don't know why other than as a tribute. As it stands, there's already a truck and what looks like two suburbans in that thing. Having a Toronado body lying around makes sense in that context.

I don't see any Suburban in this, mostly a '56 Ford pickup cab and fenders.

Count_Dongula@reddit

Those windows look to me to be from a Suburban. Two suburbans, which makes me think he took the rear section from two suburbans and grafted it on.

Drzhivago138@reddit

The side windows, like the back, look like generic sliding windows you can get at a hardware store.

[-]

Count_Dongula@reddit

No, you're right. The body crease is wrong too. So did this guy just take sheet metal and do this?

[-]

Drzhivago138@reddit

I think so. The fenders were also used on Flareside pickups from 1953 all the way through 1979, so it wouldn't be hard to find extras to make the extensions.
