CARPET, Mass backed Raylon weave, black, with heel pad and without toe pad to match the original carpet style, Carpet is serge bound and rises up the rocker panel just like the original late carpets did, Made from OEM grade materials, These carpets have a sturdy poly backing and are heat molded to follow the contours of the floor - just like the originals, Heel pads match the original and are sewn on, All exposed edges are serge bound in a matching thread duplicating the original carpet, The Raylon weave is a near exact duplicate of the original twisted loop design found on the original nylon carpet but in 100% nylon that will last longer and look better than the nylon design without the tendency to fuzz and pill, The thread is also thicker than original at 16.5 denier compared to 14 denier for the original nylon, ** Mass backed ** is an Ethylene vinyl acetate, A 40 mil thick material added to the back of the standard carpeting, It adds insulation, sound deadening and improves the quality of the mold process of the carpet, See 013000-3K, 013000-4K for mounting hardware options, ** Toe pads were seen on some cars prior to about Nov 1969 but their use was not consistent, From about Nov 69 ALL cars came without toe pads including all Boss 302 and Boss 429 cars, **

Fit was acceptable, not great. Some trimming required at edges which was expected, but I had to cut the shifter hole which didn’t make sense since none of them were ever column shift so they should just have the hole. Same for the floor hi beam switch.

Molded carpet sets have never had holes pre-cut, because there is SO MUCH deviation/variance when heat molding something so large. And when you combine that with 1. Some cars have had floor sections replaced, maybe not perfectly-accurate, especially where they re-located the dimmer switch 2. Some folks use many layers/thicknesses of sound-deadener, others none at all, which changes geometry, 3. Some cars are running aftermarket shifters and/or non-original transmissions where the transmission tunnel hole has been modified or relocated… When you take into account all of the possible variables, pre-locating and pre-cutting holes would be absolute chaos, only a minority of customers would be able to just “drop in” a carpet, and everything line-up perfectly. Especially the dimmer switch hole. If that sucker was pre-cut, that one hole would dictate the final fit and adjustment of your entire installation. If you wanted to scootch the carpet ½” over for a better/nicer lay in the floorboards, you’d now have an off-line hole and no way to fix the problem.
Even when Ford was assembling these cars brand new in the
factories, assembly line workers installed and trimmed carpets first for fit,
and then located/executed the holes. It’s the only way you can do it with
something that large, that comes out of the molds a bit different every time
(temperature, stretch/handling, alignment of the section going into the mold,
etc…).
