69 Nova paint question

You are probably right about the door frames. Funny how they seemed to address that color issue, but always blew body color on the outside of the dash area.

I think you can use the same rule of thumb with Novas as X66 camaros. The black simply doesn't show up well enough on some of the darker colors to warrent it.

I've seen some Novas that had the black out without the lower rocker chrome, although the most common is with the double chrome. I sometimes think they used the same logic with this as the rocker curtains on 68s.

After thinking on this a little more, I would think that if on a 69, the inner door frames were blacked out, it would get the blacked out rockers with the lower trim. I'm not sure how, or what triggers the lower black without the lower chrome.
