Two unidentified CBs with unknown KO numbers

In the last few days I have stumbled across two CBs I can't identify and neither has KO information supplied in the formats I discovered them. I do not believe them to be on the CB Register.
Wondering if anyone here has any knowledge of these cars, respective owners, specific locations, and KO numbers? Both vehicles appear to be in very good condition, but different widely in style, due to owner preference, I would assume.
If anyone has info on either of these two CBs, please jump in here and tell us what you know.

The first is a very nice looking Ute.

The second CB is more of a lowered, street cruiser style:

Hi Steve
This one is interesting, seems to have the same cab on it.
All these hard tops were made by local fabricators, there wasn't actually a "factory" one, that I know of. The dealers would offer them at the point of sale.

The primo Ute I posted is KO 506 on The Register.
Redone from pics on The Register.
Very, very nice from my extremely long view across the Big Pond.

What is this KO on this example, Tony?
10,000 km.........a good starting point mechanically.

Regards,
Steve
