I have read the comments on Jeep colors which inspired me to ask you what are your opinions about the jeeps used in North Africa, especially those used by SAS. Were they repainted sand over the OD or were they painted sand ex-works? I have heard both answers already. The pictures of those jeeps show that the sand paint was often worn out, especially on edges. But is is not clear is the dark paint which appeared beneath the sand was ex-works OD or just a sort of primer or even the metal. And consequently, if the jeeps were re-painted, does it mean that engine compartment, engine and chassis with bottom of the body remained original OD?

Thnaks a lot in advance for your comments,
Jan.
