Color advice

I need some help with my color choices. I've got a '71 with '69 front end and I'm at the point where i need to decide on color. I've got a '72 nova thats a bright red and I think that same color will look nice on my '71. I'm thinking a two tone either red with white or something different that some may not like - a flat red with gloss red two tone. Sounds funny, but if i pull it off, it will look awesome. My question is on the interior though. I've got the '71 door panels with the woodgrain trim and a black seat. What color would you go with on the dash and doors? My interior is decent now, so I don't know if I should paint the metal a gloss red with black carpet or do black metal with a red carpet or ???? I like the red/black houndstooth seats, which would match the outside, but is red carpet and interior to much red with a red exterior? How about red/black houndstooth seat and black carpet? This is not going to be an original truck, but a semi-custom with the original look to it. I'm wanting to keep all my woodgrain trim outside and two-tone it somehow, but I can't figure out the interior. Any suggestions or pics? Someone posted a while back a blazer with flat red paint and i really like it. I really don't like white on the interior because my door panels and dash pad are already black. Thoughts????
