i had also thught of this last week.
I was thinking about a Subaru Justy ( little 4wd)
Weight and controls seemed to be the main concerns
Also the suspoension in the rear - a Live axes would be tricky as it moves - independant rear would be best - but probably limited as to the available cars ( or trucks) to use.
I even went as far to think of taking a tiny Pickup truck - converting the Front Wheels to drive Electric and mount a Motorcycle between the frame rails to make a home-made hybrid three wheeler.... i think weight would kill that one though...
