Video: M-38 Underwater

Mike shared a Facebook link for this video, which was floating around the different jeep groups. Here's the youtube version.

This 1952 Video by Warner Pathe News follows the M-38 and Diamond Reo M-34 underwater. After these tests, you'd expect Willys would have sold Willys Scuba Gear.

Thanks. It's fixed. I was having some problems with that link last night, so can't say I'm too surprised :-)

I would imagine that within ten years of being under sea water these were piles of rust no matter what preservatives were used beforehand. Pretty neat concept though.
