Looks like something made out of a motor home.

The headlights are from a Chevy or GMC but that doesn't mean that it's on a Chevy or GMC chassis.

Try "Mobile Intensive Coronary Care Unit" - it's an ambulance.

Great history...
Thanks to Kegare and Weasel1984.

Great to see such a historic unit being restored. Back then telemetry of EKGs was high tech stuff.
