When I restored my 1941 Ford 12 cab I didn’t complete the roof. The original roof was in very bad condition so zo never bothered. At the time I starting hunting for a replacement but then I came across various pics of CMPs in service without roofs. Many of these were from service in N Africa.
My truck was painted up in mickey mouse pattern with Lightstone as the base to represent a truck from that theatre. Without much room in a 12 cab, the lack of a roof made for a less claustrophobic atmosphere. I have lost my original info but I do recall coming across directions for a field mod that was constructed of a pipe frame and simple canvas cover, more of a sun shield than a roof.
