Any skoolies 7' wide?

Hello everyone..

Iv been trying to find a narrow track enclosed trailer (wheels under in wells instead of on the outside in fenders) so I can drive roads like this.. These mountain roads are narrow and don't want my rig any wider than the 12 valve truck I'm shopping for. But since I haven't found the perfect truck yet, I'm still considering alternatives..

Are most school buses 8' wide? Are there any that are 7' wide outside?

Thanks!

Why a school bus? If you're looking to do lots of off-roading, it might make more sense to start with a vehicle made for rugged terrain. You could always start with a used F350 chassis and build your own "box"

Because Iv seen a few buses with my favorite cummins 12 valve engine.



But from the response here, or lack of, it looks like none of them are only 7' wide..


Oh well. Ill keep looking for my 12 valve and narrow track 7x16 trailer.



Thanks!
