Looks to be in the Netherlands. Good for them. Is that an Austin Mini in the front?

They should fill it with porta-potties and call the company...

I call digital trickery. The truck bed looks a bit too perfect.

MiniWorld had a feature, many years ago (‘93 or ‘94) about some Dutch mecanic who had turned a Minivan or Mini Pick-up into a tractor unit. He had even cobbled up a hybrid Hydrolastic/Citroën hydropneumatic suspension, complete with compressor so that he could adjust ride height at will. I also remember it had exhaust stacks, just like in the image.
I bet it is the same guy. That article did not show a trailer, however.

Huh...I suddenly feel the need to make a smart semi.

Not sure whether it is the same I saw so many years ago in MiniWorld, but this seems to be the one shown in the .gif.

You’ve probably already seen this considering your...uh...enthusiasm about Smarts, but someone has a good starting point for you

I’m not sure what kind of mini it is. I saw it elsewhere and figured it was oppo material! Crazy thing though!

That’s bad ass!
I’m surprised it can tow that trailer, let alone carry stuff in it lol

Reminds me of the pictures I’ve seen of a Crosley pick up turned into a semi.

From other things I’ve heard it’s got a fully customized rear suspension to handle the load properly.
