If the Nova had the rocker trim (2 pieces) it would be blacked out. Here is the 69 brochure that shows it.

POKE HERE

I don't believe the fathom green received the black-out treatment, just the lighter colors.

Thanks marlin . Not that anyone would start laying paint after something I blurted out, but.... I don't want an angry mob storming my castle with flaming torches and battering rams....

Thats what I thought...I didn't think it got it. The Garnet red one we are doing had it. But I didn't think the dark color would..BKH

None of the Nova brochures 68-70 mentioned the "RAT"....you had to know to ask for it. There were occasional factory print ads that mentioned the BB, but not very many...it was also a topic of several magazine test drive articles...eg; "13 second grocery getter"...lack of up front marketing really added to the sleeper reputation of these cars

Darker colors like dusk blue, fathom green, black....did not get the black paint accent. Look at the photos of BBB's 69 for reference.
