69 Nova Trunk Mat
 
Does anyone know where I can get one? Everyone wants to sell me one that for a 71 up Nova.

Phil Woj is having trunk mats made for 69 chevelles. You might want to ask him.
not sure if they are even close to chevelle mat in material, design, etc.

Very few Novas came with trunk mats. Depending on what part of the country you live in, trunk mats are an invitation for rust to form in the trunk area. Moisture gets trapped between the top of the trunk floor, and bottom of the rubber mat. Or if the trunk seal leaks, that adds moisture. I won't put a trunk mat in anything and leave it. Pulled up way to many to find surface rust on the trunk floor. FWIW

Schoneye is correct, and just to add; the trunk mat traps moisture which simply ruins the water based trunk spatter paint!

Hi Guys, I had a repo trunk in my Deuce years ago, found out it was not correct for the car, so I went to take it out, was not pretty. I threw the mat away, much better without one. Just lay towels down for protection, and take them out when you show the car or store.

Hey guys,
Thanks for all the replies.
Another question: what is the correct trunk spatter paint colors for a 69 ss?

black/aqua

Most of these trunk paints are water based, so don't forget to use a clear sealer over top of it.
