Default Creating a collection with a difference

Now here's a theme for someone looking to build a collection with a difference: Vehicles with substantial CMP componentry. These should be distinct from mere modified CMPs such as mobile cranes or farm trucks.
Something like the Tutt Bryant would qualify, as would the GM Fox-based garbage collector or the Ebeling street sweeper, once a common sight around Melbourne. When I was working at Hughes Auto Spares back in the 70s we were always on the lookout for 20" rims which these three wheelers used.

Here's a pic of the Ebeling street sweeper from State Library Victoria collection
