Bought a new ACC carpet from Ames .. was not to impressed with the carpet, it was to wide and had to trim both sides so the juke pad was centered, the rear section was to long, they don't cut for the seat belts or dimmer , gas pedal base .. it was a pain to install but doable , I have replaced later model vehicle carpets and flooring and never had to trim or cut at all ..maybe it's just the older model carpets that come almost like carpet from a roll...
Had some fun with finding dead mice under the seats! I was surprised to find the build sheet still there , although the mice ate one corner of it.. but four mice and two nests were in there.:eek:
 
excellent on the build sheet. I have replaced carpet on a 69 Corvette and ran into the same thing where nothing was precut, seat belt slots, seat screw holes, etc.
 
Ya it's harder than you think putting in carpet...
One thing on the build sheet I noticed it says the car has "heavy duty frame" I never heard of that option .. :)
 
do you see the option code for the frame?
any chance it was a police car?
______________________________
 
Yes the code is there I will get it tomorrow , don't think it was a police car though as its a rag top.. does have a l78 engine code pretty sure it's the 330 hp 400 4 barrel ..
 
Heavy duty frame is, f 35 option ..gotta love option b 50 front seat foam cushion :rolleyes: how could you get a seat without cushion? :eek:
 

Right in the center of the sheet
