that uses actual footage of that time I will look at the cars and see
if I can see the charcoal burners on them.

During WW2, many german civil cars were operated on wood gas. The wood 
is heated to 800 degree celsius and starts to burn without oxygene, it 
converts to charcoal. The wood gas is 50% carbon dioxide , 33% carbon 
monoxide, 10% methan, some ethen and hydrogene. A special driver 
license was required. What lef the exhaust is anything else than 
environmental friendly.
