There is another photo somewhere of a CMP Wrecker goaing down the line with several parts finished in different colours.

Not a big deal, I guess.
See Ford Canada Factory....

My guess is these trucks were given a final coat of paint after assembly. Either that or they simply fitted cabs, cargo bodies and wheels painted Light Stone to SCC2-coloured chassis. That would be "about right" too, as most vehicles would be knocked-down for shipping and there could be a need for another camouflage scheme depending on final destination.
