Or they also could have picked up some surplus paint left over from WWII. That's what it looks like to me!

when new, these cars only came in leaf green, iris blue, olde english white, carrington beige and cherry red. Dark green was also available in 1959.Color chips are available from sikkens,ditzler,etc
I know this wasn't supposed to be an official color, but I've seen it elsewhere (just enough to wonder).

carrington beige??... never heard of it.
The only beige color for the Bugeye is Whitehall Nevada Beige, probably the most rare color for the Bugeye. My first Bugeye was Nevada Beige, as was the current one I'm restoring.
You can see to full color selection here. Info is from OSM by Terry Horler.
