Re: Jeep dame of the Day
Hi Jeff’ I don’t know that expression « rake ».
Is that the windshield angle?
I don’t see anything else remarkable with that windshield.
Thanks
Yves

Re: Jeep dame of the Day
This is a great thread! Just want to point out that the jeep in the 1st photo (Hood #20111667) is only 139 units away from my 42' GPW, based upon the Hood Estimator. Would be neat to find out where this photo was taken and if other jeeps (including mine ) were delivered to the area to support the war effort.YLG80 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 14, 2022 11:27 pmIn about 30 clicks, that thread will reach ...

It's time to remind the first beautiful photo published by Finn42 who had the idea to create that "Jeep dame of the Day" thread in 2018.

Funny, here is the same jeep. That photo shows a different color.

Re: Jeep dame of the Day
Looking at the two photos...I noticed the relation between the U.S.A and the lower numbers look identical...The leading edge of the first 6 lines up with the leading edge of the "A".
If the vehicle had been repainted, would the relationship stay the same after that repaint the numbers.
Similar discoloration of the sidewall on the rear tire.
My guess, not repainted, just different photos...the difference could by caused by different camera, film type, exposure settings (back when everything was manually set), different film or even storage of the prints.
