Default CCKW-353 Road sweeper query

Hi all,
Here is the only picture of a truck fitted with such device I'm aware of:

The same picture is published in "Red Ball Express" book by Pat Ware and the caption says "Discarded ration cans became a hazard along the routes, the metal tending to shread tyres, and so a number of 'road sweeper' vehicles were equipped with a beam magnet to clear the surface."
Are there other pictures of trucks fitted with such magnet, not necessary CCKWs? I ask because I want to model this particular Jimmy but there are some details I'm not sure in on this single picture I have. I mean the magnet only, of course, those CCKW are scrutinized long ago.
TIA!
