I subscribe to a couple of UK classic truck magazines. Several articles have mentioned trucks having multipurpose. During the day they would make rounds as a flat bed and at night as a box or livestock van. I suspect they would fasten the body on with squared Ubolts then just pull it into the yard undo the bolts jack it up and prop it up and drive out from under it then back under the other body lower it fasten the ubolts and away you go. Since companys like that would have a staffed shop and would often build their own bodies it would only be a few minutes work to do the change.
