Re: {Chrysler 300} 1964 carpets

There’s a way t do it yourself. Difficult yes,but it’ll work. Use an awl, supper duty needle and heavy monofilament fishing line. The line will appear to be the same color as your heel pad. Use the existing holes.

I did it on my front window shades, worked great.

Thanks, Guys. Yes I know Legendary, I have their seat covers. Their carpet advertisement looks just like the ACC bio. Many shops sell these. They do not fit the 63-64 floor pans, ask me how I know. But I will call them tomorrow and double check. So far I find Kanter who buys from an outside vendor, and Automat in NY. Both offer 100% guarantees. Anyone else?

 

I did cut off the heel plates and have restored them. I am going to try the velcro method. I am not sure anybody has a sewing machine around with that deep of a throat. 

 

And how does one line up the stitching pattern to keep from chewing up that little channel where the thread will go down in?

Rich,

I used heavy duty Velcro hook side adhered to the under side of the heel pad. It seemed to work for me for several years.

Think about saving/refurbishing the heel plates in the front footwells of the 300K’s.  Note the location and find an industrial-grade sewing machine to stitch the pads to the carpet in the proper places.  I think the pads may also be stuck to the carpet with adhesive but that would be a rather permanent fix.

Can anyone recommend a supplier of quality carpet sets? That fit?

ACC is not an option, they do not carry 63-64 Chrysler molded carpet sets. Quirey is a no as well.

 

Thanks!
