So it might have been discussed before, but I'm looking for original type carpet that fits good. I've already ordered one brand and it doesn't fit worth a crap. So I'm looking at what others have used with good results. I just got off the phone with Rick at Factoryinteriors (ACC) and he only had a listing for convertible not hardtop. Are they not the same? I have a '66 Rogue with bucket seats and console, see picture.  Thanks in advance.


Always roll with the correct damper crown, a generous helping of flex tandems and a pocket full of brass fitting nickel slits.

Convertible is different from sedan/hardtop. I never tried to interchange them but I suspect that they are different where the top cylinder covers a but the floor. I have used a few different brands and I have not found a perfect fit. Warm it in the sun, put it in warm and gently use a heat gun. I glue a little at a time, starting in the middle.

I got carpet for my 79 AMX from Superior Carpet. Couldn’t ask for more. Great quality and perfectly formed.

Bought a kit for my 69 Rambler 2-Door post and it was very good quality.  Any kit you buy requires some massaging.
