We all know that the factories painted the trucks in camo patterns for the first few months of production but discontinued this practice because of mismatch of pieces when reassembling overseas. My question would be, if the factories were rolling out camiouflaged trucks off the assembly lines, why would they have to invent "fantasy" schemes to show the public? Couldn't they just show them acres of already camouflaged trucks?
To take this a step further, does anybody have any factory photos showing the "normal" military camo paint jobs from 1940 or these all there are? An observation from the first five photos. The 8 cwt and the 15 cwt are a dark colour in the wheel wells and the rest are what would likely be light stone.
