Default Carpet Backing

Can someone please answer this. How did the carpet come from the factory in a 66 corvette conv, with or without backing? Should any jute or any sound deadener be layed under the carpet to be correct for judging? I'm getting mixed answers on this subject, it's driving me crazy. I plan on getting the car judged in the near future. I would appreciate the forum's input.
Thank you

If you're getting it judged down the road, you'd be wise to get yourself the current version of the 66 Judging Guide. Most all your answers are within. Bill
