Hi Hanno
Not quite so unusual but it would certainly cause a stir if one turned up. The REME converted a number in the desert by utilizing jibs from Hyster industrial cranes, i would assume taken from the many base workshops out there and the majority were fitted with disguarded CMP 15cwt bodies for the tackle. The lower photo shows 3 under construction i believe a few survived into the Italian campaign, one even survived in the UK and somewhere i have a photo of it working in the Brighton Sussex area and will post it when located
