While related to Jeep sheet metal this is more along the lines of WW2 production painting of Jeeps . Note the random placement of the star on the hood and the haste with which is was done . It was far more important to get them made than to worry about being neat. Wish the judges looking at vehicles at rallies would keep this in mind.

The stars are perfection and genuine WWII era. No haste, just artistic individuality with gasoline soluable stencil paint.
