I had this mat in my 62 and was wondering if it’s worth anything.?


I’m going to carpet the trunk and won’t need it.

Yep Don't know if it is original or not.......I'd give you $100.00 for it...If it is original, it's worth more than that IMO!

Fatdaddy

I’m not sure if their original or not . The one pic has some numbers.

I would be interested in it as well. I need a red mat for my '61....which has no mat at all. If dcamick doesn't want it, I am very interested, as it matches the patina of my car!!

So what do you think it’s worth?

dcamick

GTOguy, I was just making a point....and I appreciate your statement. I have a Non Original 61 Corvette has a brand new non original trunk mat cut from a old original mat template. If it becomes "ForSale" be my guest...And thank you!

Actually, we are, sort of, swarming over this part like buzzards...LOL!

Have a great weekend.....

By the way, OP...A new repro mat is around 350.00 to 400.00 US. Ebay has originals (I think) at around the same price.......I think, a good deal would be 200.00 guestimate!

I’m not trying to get anybody pissed off here,I was just curious about it’s worth.

dcamick

I trust your'e kidding.....Cause I'm not at all angry! Hope you get the info you need to make a decision...Text messages sometimes are interrupted that way...Good luck!!

I pm you

As I recall, original 61-62 mats (except black ones) had ink stamped part nos. rather than molded.

Any ideas on this one? It came from my 59, but not positive it is for a 59.

What it is worth will depend on how fragile it is.

The one I purchased at Chev parts counter in the mid 1970s, was falling apart when i removed it in 2009, trying to pull it out of the trunk area, gingerly, it woudl tear at the inside corners and cutouts for the drain tubes. It went into the garbage and i used trunk liner material instead as it was much less expensive than a repop amt,and looked better anyway, but it isn't NCRS.

Very true. The mats seem to self destruct over time. I bought two 61-62 mats from a Chevy dealer in '73. They were undisturbed, laying in a closet inside until about 2012 when I sold them. Both were prone to tear and seemed almost brittle toward the edges. They had dried out in spite of an easy life in a 'controlled' atmosphere.
