New carpet recommendation Plymouth PJ

[rrunnertexas]

My 1935 Plymouth could use some new carpet.  A quick search revealed a company "stockinteriors.com" and they list what appears to be a nice custom fit set in multiple colors.

 

Does anyone have experience with the carpet from them?  Decent set or keep looking?

 

Thanks!

Have you received them yet? Wondering how they turned out.  My interiors are fine, but need the trunk carpet after having to cut it up looking for bolts and fuel sending unit cap!  I figured I’d just take it to a local auto upholstery shop.

I have not ordered any yet.  Was hoping to get a bit more input, but maybe not many have ordered from this company to provide advice.

 

May order a carpet set in the next few months and give it a shot.

I like to use a carpet that works great and is very quiet. But, you need to have an experienced upholsterer use it and it is not cheap. The stuff is from Bill Hirsh and it is a wool hogs hair carpet.

not great but not bad. Worked for me with small alterations

[rrunnertexas]

James, sure looks great!

 

Booger, so it is decent and will fit with a bit of adjustment.  What I like to hear.  Carpet is on the radar now.

This looks great who made / installed the carpet in your car.

The raw carpet is from Bill Hirsh. My local San Francisco Bay Area upholsterer custom cut it, bound it and installed it along with rebuilding the seats, the door panels and the like.

so I took a look at JC Whitney and found that they dont go far enough back in years to 1948 for a carpet for my vehicle were you ever able to get one through them or did you go somewhere else?

I got mine from Kanter (https://www.kanter.com/index.aspx).  Call them though because their website is a bit lacking.  Their catalogue (I mean...who uses catalogues anymore, LOL!) is much nicer and has more stuff in it.  I didn't install it yet but I will once it snows and I put her away for the winter.  I'll post pics then.

JC Whitney is still around?  I used to get their catalog all the time, but haven't heard from them since the 80s!
