Default Red Interiors ... 1969 only?

Saw on a Nova site that red interiors were only offered in 1969 for Novas from 1968-1974 .... Does this sound correct?

Yes. 69 was the only year for red.

That didn't keep me from putting a complete red interior in my 70 Nova though. The red interior worked really well with the fresh big truck white exterior.

Sorry, no pictures of the Nova. I only have pictures of three cars I owned, and the Nova isn't one of them.

The 1969 red interior was only available for Nova coupes with the bucket seat option. There was no red interior option for bench seat cars.

That is interesting .... My car is Garnet red with Red Bucket seat option.
I wonder why only with the bucket seats?

True.... as far as factory availability is concerned, but red vinyl bench seat covers are available from aftermarket suppliers.
