Clive,
I did read somewhere that the stencil spaces were to be filled in to form a solid number/letter. I solved my stencil problem,turns out there are all kinds of stencil fonts in my computer under Microsoft office word.I can just pick the size & style of font,print them on paper,cut them out and then paint them on the vehicle.Of the many choices of fonts in my computer to chose from,the closest style is called ''STENCIL''.My research shows the letters/numbers for the W.D. numbers to be 3 1/2 inches high. One problem I cannot figure out is on the front fender I can see 2 sets of 3 digit stenciling but to zoom in only distorts the image so I can't tell for sure what is marked there.I know the tire pressures are usually in these spots above the wheel wells and assume that is what they are but researching the tire pressures for WWII "Commonwealth" jeeps,they did not use the standard "American" TP but were supposed to be marked: RS 30 (road surface) or CC28 (cross country). The photo shows 2 sets of stenciling so this option doesn't seem likely,the only other option I can think of what is stencilled is; R 30 and F 30. Can anybody help me figure out what is correct here.Maybe somebody has access to a higher resolution photo of this jeep and can blow up the picture to see what is there.I couldn't find many jeep photo's in service with tire pressures stencilled on them at all so can't find a common pattern to go by. Thanks for any help you can give. Regards,Derk.
