Bummer... would like to read more about it.  Quick google just leads to dead end clickbait sites...

the cab part looks midengined. Not enough sheetmetal behind the rear wheels to hide the engine

Would be cool to see in real life, but the bottom photo appears to be a rendering, and not the completed version of the top photo. Note in the top photo that the green truck is a double cab version, and the trailer in the first photo looks to be a bay window bus, not a split window, and is not a 23 window van like is shown in the bottom rendering.

I want to like this more than I do, but you gain almost no room by cutting and combining the vehicles as pictured. I'll huff and ill puff and ill LOGIC myself out of a cool looking project. cheeky

Those pics appear mostly unrelated. Top pic is a photo of a later 68+ microbus duo and the lower is a render is of a 67 or earlier pair. And honestly, if you cut up a <67 21 window, fu.  

I agree that engine placement might be problematic and extra space over a legit westy is minimal at best. Super cool and I'd own it anyway if cheapish and real.

Funny, I want to like it less than I do, for exactly the same reasons...

In 1975 sure. In 2019, I might physically try to stop a guy from doing that.

I'd steer them towards doing it with a Ridgeline and Element
