thanks
lance :aiiet:

I got mine from Brothers or Jim Carter. I'm not sure which. Most of these kits come from ACC http://www.accmats.com/ Mine fits great and covers all the way back to the tank. Came with the padding and the color (Bright blue) was a good match.

I agree. This company makes top notch carpets.

I am a dealer for ACC carpet kits if you are interested in a set.

There is a place ( Classic Muscle )in North Carolina ( Winston Salem ) that sale GM Restoration parts for 67-72. They are great people. Most of all their parts are in stock. Toll free # 1-800-727-4856 www.oldmusclecars.com
They tuns of other parts in stock

Just a little tid bit of info, if you have plans to remove the gas tank any time in the future (blazer tank conversion) make it a point to tell whoever you do order from. They can leave it long enough to cover that extra 11 inches or so. This will save you from having to order a "patch" section later as well.

I'm a dealer for ACS carpet and for ACC. I don't want to pull any sales from Chris, but I was very unhappy with the quality of my ACC stuff, which is why I became a dealer for ACS instead. The ACC stuff has a tendancy to fade very badly, at least their cut pile does. Their loop stuff might be better. I've got the cut pile in my GTA and it faded badly in a year's time. Others that I sold it to now have had their gray carpet turn green, and their black carpet turn colors too.

So far I've found that with the cut pile, the ACS is a substantially better product. The carpet is much thicker and more plush, and has better color retention.

But again... my experience extends only to the cut pile. The loop carpet that the older trucks used may be an entirely different issue. Chris probably has more experience with the loop style stuff from ACC, and can verify that it's more color-fast than their cut pile.
