Did I really See It?

Yesterday while driving on I-4 from Jacksonville to Tampa, Florida. I noticed a Bus conversion approaching in the opposing lanes. What caught my attention was one half of a sedan sticking out the back of the Bus at least 5 feet above the road surface. It was too quick to get a photo but in my minds eye it looked like the conversion must have added a toy hauler/garage above the engine compartment such that half was in and half was out.

Are my old eyes lying to me?

You can probably get up into that VW bus and use it like an observation deck. I sure wouldn't want to be up there if there were any low hanging trees on the road.

I've seen those at small race tracks------------they make a cheap race car hauler.

It was like an older Trailways or Greyhound bus, tag axle.

What kind of a bus was it. there a few companies that are converting old school buses and even old tour buses into haulers.

Here is a link to some Converted buses. there are some rough ones and some really nice ones!
