    I like that idea. Make use of available materials. If it was one of those tall stationwagon "spacevan" things you could cut the guts out and still keep the roof.
    I can see some plus sides to this design. Firstly nearly any vehicle would do. If you reinforce the chassis to allow for removed pieces, it would problery go faster and handle better than a full size van or truck, and it would be easyer to park than a trailer. On the downside it looks limited on space, and if it rains your bike, gear and driver gets wet

    If im not mistaken thats a USA number plate and the bike is mounted right of center, so the driver problery has some driving room and it problery never rains there.

    edit: "vehicle must appear stock from the outside" (monster garage) I can see room where the bike could be lowered and the hatch they couldve made hinge at the screen. Add the bumper piece to the hatch so it could be closed up and look stock.
