1970 fastback trunk mat source
« on: May 18, 2016, 10:05:57 PM »
Does anyone know where I can find a source for the speckled trunk mat material for a Dearborn fastback? This car has the evaporative emissions (GT500) and the die cut versions will not fit.

Believe a number of of the suppliers carry the basic mat but it sounds like your having trouble making that one fit. There are none precut for the vapor return system that I'm aware of

What I am trying to do is contact one of those suppliers directly so that I can try to purchase the material before it is die cut.

Auto Custom Carpet (ACC)?
Fold down rear seat trunk mats are also cut differently than fixed rear seat ones.
I suppose you could ask Jack Brooks at deadnutson.com since he is concours oriented enough to make a nice trunk mat underlay.

No promises but will PM with a possibility.

A suggestion - if you get a pattern and make one - always make a few  ::)
