Carpet Install Pics
Hi Guys-
Finished the carpet and seat install today. Not too bad a job but I'm not ready to do it again in the near future. I have door panels ready to install but must first put on new top an weather stripping.
Will be on the road soon! I've owned this thing for four years and have never driven it.
Enjoy!
Larry

Looks great! Congratulations on a nicely done job.
But now you've given me a potentially expensive idea. The loop carpet looks nicer and more durable than my cut pile....
Thankfully my 1974 went into commercial storage on Friday and I won't have to pull out the VISA card until April. My wish for you: Happy Driving!

Nice looking work. The red really looks great.
Paul, I thought about the cut pile when I redid mine several years ago. What I wound up doing was going with 80/20. I believe it is 80% loop with 20% cut pile. I really like the look. Just an idea for you if you decide to go that route.

It has crossed my mind to go down the road a bit but alas, no tags yet.
Unfortunately, to get tags I have to take it to the tag office for inspection. Don'tcha wonder how they expect anyone to do that without tags
Enjoy!

Great Job 
And yes, Paul74 that is correct, the reference was a made due to the content of what the old carpet sets were made from, 80% rayon and 20% nylon.
