Default Carpet Options

I am not particularly fond of the cut pile carpet in my 79 L48 (early). Does anyone offer 80/20 loop that fits?

Nobody "offers" it, that I'm aware of, but I'm sure Al Knoch can make a 79 kit in 80/20 loop for you. I've had Knoch make carpet kits for some of my customers, using colors and carpet types from other year Corvettes. The only limiting factor is if they have 80/20 loop, in the same color as your 79.

I've had Auto Custom Carpet make kits in non stock colors or materials too. They actually have a much larger assortment of raw carpet, than Knoch, but can sometimes be hard to deal direct with. When using ACC for non standard carpet sets, I usually go through Corvette America, and have them get color samples for me before ordering.
