RE: 1965 Dodge Polara 2 Dr auto. carpet?

Mats are a whole other story. I plan to make patterns and have coco mats made for the ’62 Dart wagon, from the company linked below. Have them in the wife’s 2010 MINI Cooper. Wear like iron - look great - shake out easily. 4 years old now in a daily driver and still look great.

I got ACC for my 65 Coronet and added floor mats. I'm not impressed with the wear quality. My mats looked like crap after just 1 season of cruising and so did the carpet UNDER the mats...all fuzzy and balled up.

If I even do another set, I'll likely look for another source.

I got the carpet for my 65 B II vert from Stock Interios in South Carolina, looked at colors and textures on line, then they sent us samples. 2 piece with seam under rear of front seat.Fits nice, good quality, extra material for trimming.

Thanks for the leads. I think the "C" body cars are usually a bit tougher to find some parts for. Dave mentioned the ACC situation and that is correct. That company was THE carpet source for years but their corporate jet went down and the top management was wiped out. Ricky again pointed out "stockinteriors.com" and that seems to be a place with "C" body carpet sets.
