max width/ length/ height that a bus/rv can be

This is all new to me I am a avid hot rodder/ body man. I just bought an old (short) 50 shevy bus. I love the sloped curved rear but want to make it the demensions I desire. My plan is to copy the rear end in the same basic conditons and make it as wide and long as i desire (legally)
and build It out of hand laid fiberglass so I can cut the weight down as well. I live in kcmo but some regs such as max size should be constant.
Thanks Dale I will post pics of progress as it progresses

40 ft long unless it articulates and 102 inches wide I believe. I'm not sure about height, but 13'6" should keep you safe going under most bridges.

Length, height, width, etc. by state

That site lists all the various limits by state and province.
