One more thing -- that's generally how "belly tankers" (salt flat speed record cars made from old WWII aircraft drop tanks) are made, except NO rear suspension or very stiff. You might find something if you search for "belly tanker".

The engine and axle were mounted on a sub frame, axle welded to it, which pivoted in front and had a transverse leaf spring in the back. Needless to say it wouldn't have rode good with all that unsprung weight, but it worked good enough that the guy had some fun with it anyway!
