I always suspected that Brian Angliss may be color-blind as some of his color combos were less than tasteful. A friend of a friend ordered a MkIV in a rather nasty shade of light metallic blue (think Kit Car) matched with a screaming scarlet red interior. It made that green/'tan' combination look good. Plus he even painted a MkIV in a weird shade of light brown that looked very unlovely.
Thinking about it I have photos of a 1964 AC Cobra that Autokraft restored and painted mid-brown - truly awful and I even photographed the nasty thing as a friend bought it!! (No longer brown, needless to say, and part of a certain Pink Floyd collection...)
