I just learned this term today :)
I knew of the concept of course, it's an old tradesman joke to say "Had this hammer for 30 years, replaced the handle 8 times, and replaced the head 3 times"
I actually had 1 ton Chevy pickup my Dad gave me, he bought it used and had it for ten years, and I made it last for maybe another ten years.
Thing was though by the time I scrapped it, the only original parts were, the rear axle housing, and the Vin (or Serial Number) plate :)
The frame and cab were actually both replaced ... but at different times years apart.
Legally it was the same vehicle, I guess :)
