Carpet... Again
I am finding all kinds of conflicting reviews from across the years for the best carpet kits on a midyear. I want to do a holiday carpet install on my 64 Coupe, is there any recent experience.
I called a few corvette places that say Al Knoch "used to be good", but its hard to get a consensus on what is good right now... any recent experiences here ?

Also, sorry for the newby question, but there are with and without padding options :
Carpet Without Padding
Carpet Foam Back
Jute Padding Kit
Am I correct in assuming that if you use the Jute kit, you dont want the foam backed carpet ?

I recently bought new carpet from ACC for my '64 Roadster. I have not installed it yet though. I had it custom made in Tru-Vette material which GM started using in the Corvettes in 1994. It's a very nice tight & short cut-pile. Although I haven't installed this set in my 64 yet, I have installed ACC carpets in my Miata and my '91 Z28. No complaints on the quality.

I just bit the bullet yesterday and ordered an ACC product via CorvetteAmerica and a jute kit also with free shipping. I wanted it before the holiday, so I had to just make a choice, hope it works out ! Thanks for the replies.
