Been done, have a look at Warehouse Publications, loads of fascinating MV
and heavy truck books including "Earth and Tree Moving in War and Peace"
Volumes 1 and 2 by Maurice Sanders. "Logging Trucks 1915 - 1970" by Donald
F Wood. "Stories of Round Timber Haulage" by Maurice Sanders.

Similarly "Circus Transport Photographs" by David Jamieson. Scammells,
Macks, et al.

Have a look at http://www.warehouse.co.uk
