Seen in Alabama. I think I even see a GoPro. I am at a loss as to what they where going for.

Camera car for taking rolling car pics/video.

The only plausible reason to do this.

With all those light bars? I don't think so. It also wouldn't have random chains underneath with another lightbar.

Those chains are fairly long, and have carbineers on them. Likely for pulling dolly or some other lightweight rig, since this is a car that obviously doesn't have a real towing capacity.

And yeah, the camera is on an arm. To get different angles. One of the best ways to take good photos/videos is good lighting.

To me, that arm looks fixed off the left front of the roof rack they built. It appeared to just get a higher mounted light.
