A Bedford truck outfitted to lay down sheets of roadway, which would allow heavy vehicles (like the Churchill tank) to move up and across sandy beaches much easier. The trucks were almost always used behind combat lines.
The American T95 medium tank prototype, which featured experimental hydro-pneumatic suspension to allow it to do all sorts of wild things. It was fitted with the turret intended for the M60A2 Starship tank, as they expected it would need to fire both conventional shells and missiles with it's specialized gun.

Have a look at this- the 1942 Thornycroft Amazon. It was Britain's attempt to get their then-biggest anti-tank gun, the 17-pounder gun mounted onto something that could protect Britain from invasion, and then hopefully take the fight to the Germans- sticking it out the back of a truck has some noticeable shortcomings though, so it was not produced in number and never deployed.Have a look at this- the 1942 Thornycroft Amazon.

A prototype Ares XM274 75mm hyper-velocity cannon mounted on a Canadian-made LAV-II, sometime in the early 2000's. Evidently it was laughably impractical, but as looks go, it's undeniably cool.
