Good question. I think it just happened. I believe the DSO builds (remaining 89 units) sold to the general public were painted white so the individual could paint and letter them to their personal choice.
Usually, on the Drag Council builds the factory teams were asked what color they wanted their unit painted.
Vintage Burgandy may of been chosen since the medium beige interior color was available with that exterior color. However, Wimbledon White was also available with the medium beige interior color.
