Ahem - I used that colour as a reference based on it once having been a standard Land Rover colour. One theory goes that the first Land Rover interiors were painted that shade of green only because there was an ample supply of surplus aircraft cockpit green paint. (as with the aluminum first used for the body panels). Pastel Green was the name for the light green used as a body colour on Series II-III Land Rovers.

Now if I had said "seafoam green" you might have had a case.

As for the mystery handle operating some kind of semaphore. there is a hole on the inside and a slot on the outside at the top of the door pillar between the first and second doors on the *left hand* side, in the sort of location you might have had one of those turn-signal semaphores of old, but I can't visualize what sort of linkage you'd have, perhaps some sort of wire and pulley arrangement running across the (now missing) cabin partition. There is a scrap of wire still attached to the handle. Maybe it had something to do with the blackout curtains.

Mystery binnacle on the doghouse - whisky cup holder - makes as much sense as anything so far suggested.
