bubbas custom interiors
i finally took a little time to take a better look at the 77 i recently acquired. when i pulled back the carpet it seems the original carpet was under it. it appears to have been re carpeted at one time and they just simply went over the top of the old carpet.. could this have been a good idea or common place 20 years ago? i can actually almost see the insulation sound deadening factor or was it just plain laziness? you tell me!

good one alan
but getting back on topic... has anyone else ever ran across this before? as i said was this a common thing to do to add extra insulation or sound deadener before maybe dynomat was available? and i pulled it back. my floors are in excellent condition. not trying to be a party pooper. im just curious. i can almost see the reasoning behind it.
