Default Quick Carpet Check Please

I installed new carpeting this week, looks great. But it's been awhile since I removed the old carpet, so I can't remember if there's a small piece now missing :confused:

If anyone has a 'vert, could you check and see if the small horizontal strip of rear deck just forward of the three-door storage compartment area is carpeted? I now have an approx. 1 1/2 inch area wide strip, the length of the storage compartment, that isn't carpeted, and shows fiberglass.

Alwyn678,
Thanks for the post (beautiful resto, by the way), but I need to see the small area just forward of the storage containers, behind the riser section.
Thanks,
Dave

I just checked mine and it's the same as yours, no carpeting....never noticed that before.

FWIW mine's fully carpeted in the area you're referring to in front of the storage compartments and it is the original carpet. :)
