The front and rear seats and rear 3 interior panels ("cargo area") were red,
they looked exactly like panels I have seen in stock '68s or '69s. No, the
steering column and dash pad were not red, it wasn't the elusive super-rare
red interior. That would be neat to see.

I would definitely put those in the "Good luck finding them" category. They
were an optional extra right? Or is that only on the earlier models?
I told him to take it to Pomona if he wanted the maximum price. He claimed
he had over $6500 into it, including shipping to and from Chicago for the
commercial shoot but since he obviously got paid to provide the vehicle, I
would think he has some room to bargain.
