Romeo Engineering

I have also been in pursuit of a trunk mat for a late year non power top '60 and have talked to Romeo. They have emphatically told me they would not be producing one. I have also talked to a number of others and in one case was told that the supplier had been looking to 15 years and hadn't been able to find one. If someone can find someone who has them I will take two in turquois.
