Actually the European racing organization back in the day required that racers utilize their respective country's racing colors, the Hurlock / AC entry was green for England and the Ed Hugus / United States entry was white / blue. It is believed that this is where the "Le Mans" stripes were actually derived from. If you look at most of the 1950s American entries from Cunningham, Hugus as well as others at Le Mans their cars were all white with blue stripes from bumper to bumper and they were usually two in parallel to each other.
