Hi Guys,
I just picked up a '78 KC that needs alot of work. I should have the 302 fired up shortly, but I noticed something strang in the interior.
The carpet was missing in the hatch area. Not too concerned, but when I look at the carpet in the seating area, it looks too new and too odd. It is cut pile and very thin. It also has house quality carpet padding, so obviousy it is not original.
I want to replace all the carpet. So the question is: Which carpet is original? Cut Pile or Loop?.
I found a replacement manufacturer;
http://stockinteriors.com/AutoCarpet.asp?Itemid=884&MakeId=8&ModelId=201
Which should I order.
By the way. I can't wait to start the rebuild. I'll be posting a lot of questions and searching for a lot of answers. I had built a '70 Mach I years ago. A buddy and I built up his '77 Cobra II back then too. I'm itchin to get back to wrenching a 'Stang again. Been doin' Jeeps for too long now.
