911R, TR, ST, RSR Needlefelt lightweight carpet

Post by stretch »

FS: R, TR, ST, RSR Needlefelt lightweight carpet. I have had this material reproduced for my ST build as there is nothing available that even looks close to the original material. Like most bespoke products, I have had to order enough to carpet my garden.! :lol:

I have matched this material to a NOS factory sample as well as the 911R in the Porsche museum and an original RSR. This is as close as it gets. I propose to sell this in a 1m x 8m roll. This material is unbound and you will need to cut and glue as you go. For reference, there is great information and photo's in the "Another Hot Rod " thread on the 911S registry. The 8m roll is enough material to cover all areas apart from the headlining to the roof and the footwells which usually have the ribbed rubber matting.

Please do not confuse this with the smooth perlon carpet fitted in the RS cars. This is the punched patterned felt found in all the race and rally cars. The carpet is Black, but is very difficult to catch the colour in the photo's. 2nd photo shows fitted to an ST build.

If like me you are trying to build a high quality replica sports purpose car, you will need a roll of this stuff !

I have stored what I need in the loft so the surplus material is for sale until it is all gone. When it's gone it's gone.

Price including paypal and tracked delivery worldwide is, £320.00. Or £300. in the UK.
Collection is also an option. Sussex or the Fairmile monthly meet.

Carpet will be shipped in a 1100mm x 200mm, 5mm thick cardboard tube.

I am awaiting delivery of these bespoke tubes so no shipping will happen until late next week.

Thanks Gents.

Dave,

Am I right in thinking this is the same material used by Kleanex in their 'man-size tissues'?

Hope you remembered my pre-order! :wink:

I think I might need enough for two cars; who knows what the future might bring!

Great job!

Cheers,
