Hello,
I'm getting ready to purchase new carpet for my 60 HT, Color is "T" (Meadowvale Green) with trim code "53" (Dark/Light Green).
1. Does anyone have a photo or link to an original bird with trim 53? I'd like to see what color the OEM carpet was. My car did not have the original carpet. I have a feeling that the green carpets from the various Tbird suppliers are not the right color.
2. Is there any preference for one carpet supplier over another? Price is not the main concern; this is a 10-year nut/bolt restoration so I'm interested in accuracy and quality.
3. I have read the carpet installation article in the TRL. Useful, but it assumes installing over the original insulation material. I am using the Quiet Ride kit, which has Dynamat on the metal and insulation over that. Has anyone worked with this? Any issues with the carpet installation?
Thanks,
John
