I was responsible for testing new chassis before they were released for delivery.
We had a track that was raised concrete blocks unevenly spaced. Front-engined bus chassis were OK (sort of), but when we built the first rear-engined bus it was impossible to stay on the wooden seat!
BTW - what you describe was just a 'chassis' (or maybe a 'chassis-cowl'). A chassis-cab was a proper truck (though without a load-carrying body).
Brave man!
