Some old Bullshit...

It's an absolute work of art!
Re: Some old Bullshit...
Thank you for the kind words gentlemen!
October 2015
Now to fix the remaining gaps at the upper edges of the kick panels...
Lastly applied a final layer of sealer...
Picked up the seats and stuff from the car upholsterer.
The two-tone combo turned out nice in combination with the new carpet IMHO...

Pattern for the carpet - in theory...
And to scale...
Basic cutting done...
Used the old OEM rubber mats and carpet pieces as templates for further trimming...
In situ trimming, fitting and cursing - clumsy fellow meets cramped confines...
Also fitted the cardboard templates for the rear kick panels...
Applied the last butyl sound insulation mats and fitted the kick panel mounting brackets...

Trimmed and fitted the remaining carpet pieces...
Now the carpet bits are waiting for delivery to the upholsterer in order to add bound hems...

Re: Some old Bullshit...
Did you buy automotive specific carpet or something else for that? It's looks incredible.
Re: Some old Bullshit...
It's "needled carpet" and quite close to the OEM fabric used on the wheel wells of my '71 Super.

I actually used "Finett 10" but this product seems to be no longer available.
Similar stuff is called needle punch carpet in America I guess...
