Default 1960 Carpet Install
Installing new carpet in a '60. I have the carpet laying in the car now and it seems to be fine without glue. What are the advantages of using glue? Suggestions? Also everything seems fine with the exception of the cut out for the gas pedal. Any suggestions for that as well? Thanks, Eric

Not glue required. Zip, nada, zilch.

Use glue only if you are looking for NCRS points.
