Carpet trimmers/fitters.

Post by XP29 »

I have my interior out at the moment to sort the floor. I'm thinking about a new carpet set. In my 1966 Charger it's a 29 piece set with the console and rear load area. Does anyone have any contact details for a good place that can do this for me?

This company may be worth speaking to, they did the trimming for Cheng's 70 roadrunner Nascar replica and did a great job. They are in Enfield.

I couldn't get automatstore web site to work. I can get in, but when I choose the vehicle I'm getting error 404 message.

I have bitten the bullet and bought a complete ACC carpet set. Got it direct, I saw it cheaper on us eBay, but with some neg feedback I was weary of buying from there. Mines black, but it will look like this, just blacker, probably rolled in a box.

To this. Still a fair bit of work to do. Plus '66 Chargers have a lot of interior that I'm hoping I can remember how to put back in!

Great job. Its nice to get rid of the dust that inevitably accumulates under all the carpet as well.

Yes. That and the carpet backing/underlay stuff is turning to dust! Behind the rear seats in a 66/67 Charger is very different to all the others in that we have a load area behind the seats but still in the cabin. The rear window is above that and that bit of carpet just fell apart from the years of sun through the window.

Thanks. Today got the rest of the interior out ready to re carpet, plus the seam sealer on before the next coat of 2pack epoxy. I do have a couple of areas that need attention which I'm hoping to get done next week, then they will be painted up and blended in.
