QTR Trim/Sill Carpet Transition
Does anyone have pictures of the area where the rear and front interior quarter trim panels/carpet transition to the door sill plate?
This is for a 63 coupe.
This carpet which is cut and bound really seems to require a lot of trim/cut fit work to fit really nice. I wasn't expecting that and it's taking me forever. Fortunately it's more than enough carpet rather than not quite enough.

Yes Rich that is the area of concern and the pix helps!
Do you have the front transition for 63?
The 65 pixs looks like it has an extra pinchwelt next to the carpet bonding.

I got my carpet kit from Al Knock also, but unlike yours and John's 65 pix mine is unbound along that edge.
I guess the metal strip alone is supposed to cover that edge? I like that foam roll on that edge though.
Thanks for the pix guys!

Well, I found that roll that goes on the edge. It's called WINLAS and I found it on DOC-Rebuild's site.
I also found hard board sold there also...is there supposed to be a piece of hard board under the kick panel carpet?
My issue here is that I didn't have a lot of the original parts as this car was kinda butchered together when I got it. It looked good but I am amazed at how many actual pieces are missing and now I'm trying to identify them.
The car will not be "original" but at least all the right pieces will be there.
