I take care of my great uncles 62 Sport and it is completely
original, and in pretty nice shape. Unfortunately the trunk mat
was gone in it so I got a pre cut carpet from I believe quirey
designs that took over for Gary Goers. Their link is below. If you
have trouble finding it when I get home next week I can go through
my folder for the car and find the receipt. Anyway, I did this
because I too took it to ACCA, at Hershey, but I entered it in a
judging class not HPOF. I have been going there trying to compete
with mostly or completely original cars for a while now. I have
found the judges rarely pick up on these minor things unless you
happen to get a Judge who really knows your model well. I feel the
carpet looks better than any rubber mat option I could find. My
goal was to look as original, or at least relatively believable to
been original as possible. If you find a good source for a rubber
mat that looks good I would love to get a hold of one but I could
not. I have had my frustrations with the AACA judging, but
eventually I realized I wouldn't trade the car I came in for any
car on the field so it really doesn't matter.

Subject: AACA Original Class Judging Plus 300H Trunk Mat Question--This past weekend the AACA held its Western National Meet in Tucson so I entered our unrestored 300H coupe for evaluation in the Original Class. It did well, earning an Original badge. It lost a few points for my switch to radial tires as I drive it regularly, plus the addition of an electric auxiliary fuel pump for priming purposes. I also learned the current fabric trunk mat had replaced the original rubber mat at some point. Does anyone have an original mat they could snap a photo of so I could see what sort of pattern it had?Thanks for any help or advice.Tony Doughty
