Default ‘62 color scheme question

Hi all, my ‘62 is stock, Roman red with black dash, bucket seats & door panels but the carpeting is Red with black specks. Was this an available combo. I’ve never seen on any other ‘62 ‘s. All Stock ones I’ve seen the rugs match the dash & seats? Any enlightenment appreciated!

Thx, thought it was Probly last owners choice. Probly as said just liked red salt pepper rug contrast w the black interior. I like as well & was just curious if it was a legit option in ‘62, still thinking not but still not definitive?
