I saw that thing at the Buick club national meet in Flint,Mi. in 1976 and it stopped me in my tracks because it was so bizarre looking.

It was not put together very professionally.The body sections were basically pop riveted together.It looked like a cross between a motor home and someone's old tin storage shed on wheels.And I shudder to think of the engineering to get the steering to work.

For anyone who wants more info, google "Shamrockaway". It sounds like the builder was a somewhat eccentric tinkerer and inventor and built this thing in his retirement.  Wild!

*whoops, looks like the website Ace posted is back online. Well, if it goes down again, that google search will lead you to other pages that also featured the same vehicle.
