Kind of what I'm now thinking.

Makes sense that trucks that never went overseas might have remained the khaki green - need to see some samples side by side to figure it out. I'll have to find that thread with those chips.

Thanks Dave for the info on engine and chassis colour

As for the interior colour of the staff car - although I would have thought they would have gone for lighter interior, but from the bits of "tarpaper" I've scraped off the oobleck green, it looks like the colour was some kind of olive/khaki green, same as exterior. Makes things simpler.
