Quick carpet question

Can someone take a pic of where the front carpet stops? I will be using aftermarket carpet so that may be a factor too. Basically I'm trying to figure out how much painted metal shows between the front and back, if that makes sense? Thanks in advance!

Re: Quick carpet question

Any floor board that is still showing after the carpet is down is covered by the carpet strips.

Re: Quick carpet question

I thought the "step up" was not covered from the factory. Here is another post on the same type of question

Re: Quick carpet question

Duh. I was thinking the rear carpet

Re: Quick carpet question

I got Trim Parts carpet for mine and they left enough so you could cover the step up if you wanted. I elected to trim it so it was just on the floor. Not real good pictures of it. I am a little disappointed that there is not a build thread of this blazer of yours.;)

Re: Quick carpet question

Mine from acc came bound on the back. It only covered the flat area of the floor. Didn't extend upwards at all.

Thanks, there was a pic in that thread of exactly what I was looking for.

I'll look into ACC, I'm wanting carpet that is bound at the rear like factory.

Well, I'm more than disappointed that there are viruses out there that can wipe out all the pictures on an SD card. :( I've been working on it for a while, and back in January I was sick, and was going to start a build so I was uploading pics from my phone but was going too slow so I took my SD card out and put it in my computer and it got wiped, all the pics are gone with the exception of what I had already uploaded, so no build thread. I have been taking more pics and will maybe make a thread in the future. Here is when I got it. Original paint, never messed with. Original Arizona truck, I would say at least 98% rust free, with the only real problem being where the windshield leaked and the rubber floor mat trapped water on the passenger side and rusted the floor a little bit. Nicest blazer tub I have ever seen.

Re: Quick carpet question

Great looking start. What are your plans for it?

Re: Quick carpet question

That sucks about the SD card. Congrats on finding one with minimal rust that is hard to do. I am sure when you are done with it it will be top notch.

Re: Quick carpet question

Damn Rick. At least post a finished pic or two ! Mike.
