Default 1969 Corvette trim color over ride

I picked up what I thought was a nice driver Corvette it was Lemans blue with blak tucked interior with some red showing here and there in the interior. I bought it from the third owner and was told it was originally a red red car someone did a color change to. This is a very original car when I got it home I started looking and seen the car was always Lemans blue so I checked the trim tag it showed lemans blue ext with a red interior. I did some research and found out that couldnt be possible so I pulled the tank down and found the tank sticker lemans blue with red interior, the sticker stated trim and color over ride but more strange than that it also stated export prep =2,export tire tax and tax sustanable. any body ever here of this.

Anything was possible in 69. The color combos in the literature were recommended.

Regards,

I'd love to see that color combination. I bet it looked awesome! Of course I'm a sucker for LeMans Blue. Ed

I really feel like I have seen that combo before on a Corvette...cant remember where though. I feel like it was a older body style though. Here is a new one that is blue / red. http://www.corvetteconti.com/photo-g...t/limit/recent

When I was a kid I recall seeing a dark blue 1970 LT1 Corvette that had red interior; not the nicest color combination IMO.

The reason I said it was not available in that color combo was if it was why would the tank sticker say paint and trim over ride.
