Smoking was still good for you back then.Keep in mind, this was back when they thought asbestos was safe and it was the "miracle" material. It looks like it would be a huge PITA to who ever had to remove that crap after it was applied.
Most Jeeps were scrapped in Europe, I saw a thing a farmer used surplus Jeep hoods mashed flat to roof his chicken house.some thoughts...
I wonder if anyone has come across this stuff on a WW2 era jeep that they have restored?
another thought... I wonder if those jeeps that made landing were ever recovered and brought back or scrapped after use.

In the South Western Pacific Ocean, there is an island that is part of the Vanuatu archipelago, called Espírito Santo. Just off the coast of this island,www.warhistoryonline.com
I saw that episode on the surplus jeep hoods, and a bunch of post war photos of literally piles of Jeeps... this was why I was thinking that they were made as a disposable item to win the war.

Not really made to be disposable, aircraft were treated the same or worse.I saw that episode on the surplus jeep hoods, and a bunch of post war photos of literally piles of Jeeps... this was why I was thinking that they were made as a disposable item to win the war. That video makes me sad btw...
