Default C2 Silver Blue Interior?

I saw a picture of a car with this interior color and never knew they came with it. I really like it. Was it a pretty uncommon interior choice?

Look in the vendors section at willcox. Look at the interior section. They have ever org color that is out in the cars. Have it in leather or vinyl.

The closest interior color was code 418 Tb/V, or 419 Tb/L Teal Blue, offered in '67. Plain Silver was offered '63-'67. The reproduction of the photo may have caused the color to look silver blue. Dennis

1964 offered the two tone interior in Silver and Blue as well as Silver and Gray in vinyl and leather. The two tones mean the lighter color was the seats and the darker the carpet. In the above options the seats would be silver and the carpets blue or gray. Either sounds pretty eye catching.

My Riverside Red car was originally Silver seats and upper door panels with Red dash, console and carpets. Couldn't stand the combination so I had the dash and carpets dyed black shortly after I bought it. Upholstery shop charged $45.00 and the black dash still looks perfect 300,000 miles later.

Thanks for the replies guys. If i remember correctly it was on a '64 with code 491BE. It was a very good looking combination. It is to bad GM didn't keep good enough records of the number of interior combinations produced.

491BE = 1964 silver vinyl interior with dark blue carpet. This combination could also be ordered with leather seats. Silver vinyl or leather could also be had with black carpet.

64 was a pretty neat year for interior choices. Besides the silver with blue or black carpet, you could order a white interior in vinyl or leather with either blue, black, saddle or red carpet!

A silver car with that color interior is very nice looking.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong (like I gotta say that) but I don't believe there was such a thing as a silver/red combo.
