Years ago I was looking for a truck chassis to replace the one in an antique truck and looked at a couple of school busses. The frames on a bus are not as heavy as a truck of the same size and horsepower. I'm pulling these numbers out of my ear here but let's say a bus is designed to carry 50 people at 250 lbs/person = 12,500 lbs. That might work for you but might not. Also, on a school bus is the body works like a unibody car and carries some of the weight. If you look into them a bit you'll find the frames on a bus are quite a bit lighter than a truck of the same weight capacity. Something to think about.
