Re: [T3] carpet compare


<x-rich>Can anyone say if the German made carpet for 1972 Squareback is still
available. Who sells it? Keith mentions "general quality" with which
he was VERY happy. What carpets are those, who makes and sells them. 
Are rubber mats also available?

correctly there are 3

qualities:


Astroturf... the Crap that JC whitney sells

General quality... I forget what they call it but I was very happy with

it... there were a few spots where it didn't fit but nothing serious.

German Square weave... $$$$ not sure if its worth the money but it's
the

same quality as the original.

Subject: [T3] carpet compare


Hey All...can anyone tell me what their opinions are of new replacement

carpeting kits?

I have had really good luck with buying parts from WCM, and they sell
"Sure

Fit" carpet kits....so I would guess these kits to be good quality
kits.

A long time ago (when I first started hunting parts for the resto), I
bought

another kit from some other supplier (TMI kit?), but I'm not sure I
made the

right choice as far as quality.

Can anyone here speak from experience on the Sure-Fit carpet kit, or
make

another suggestion?
