I don't think zucchini would hold up well, would become mushy.
Pickled carrots and celery are very good... years ago I used to eat at a
Mexican type tavern in downtown San Diego (San Diego was a sleazy slum back
then), they'd serve a big bowl of pickled carrots and celery at the bar and
on every table. The carrots were thinly sliced on the bias with a ripple
cut knife to make wide sticks, the celery in like 3/8" sticks. The brine
was weak on salt but heavy on sweet and hot pepper. They were addictive
with corn chips and beer.
