Hi George

Carpet colour? Coupe or Targa? Rhd or lhd? 60’s, 70’s or 80’s? T, E or S model? Perlon or velour?


Regards
Mike

Hi Mike it's a 1977 targa, lhd with aircon, cork orange, not sure if it's a velour or perlon, how do i tell? It does look more like a fabric then carpet

Sorry George, not my era. I can’t help in detail. You will need to get better advice from some of the other guys who I’m sure will be along soon. Good luck!

Mike

I would recommend Lakewell carpets. I have used them a few times, including for impact bumpers, the quality is good.

Hi,

I got a carpet for my 89 3.2 from Southboundtrimmers, the guy I spoke to had an encyclopedic knowledge of the colours and fabric that should be used. I think definitely worth a call,

Cheers

Roger

Hi George,

Your carpet in a 77 would have been a tan/beige/cork (everyone has a different word for the colour) silverknit (some refer to this a "teddy bear" carpet! )

There is pretty much one supplier of this colour as used by all to reproduce carpet sets.

I only supply/fit/trim carpet sets to car's in my trim shop and would say the Lakewell offering is good value for money

Best

Garry

Lakewell and Southbound both get my vote.
