Jeep Colours

Thanks to the good folks at the website Bring a Trailer, I saw an advertisement for a 1946 Willys Jeep. Those colours looked familiar! According to the Jeep ad, the colours Harvest Tan with Sunset Red were a factory scheme for the CJ2A Jeep, and look a lot like the gold and red the Land Rover had been painted by the previous owner's neighbor sometime in the early 1980's. I wonder if that neighbor had seen a Jeep in these factory colours, and thought they might also work on a Land Rover? Could just be a coincidence, of course, but I thought it was worth showing here.
