I don't know about 1951 but if Packard in 51 followed prior and later years, the senior cars had different carpet than the juniors. In 50 and back some years the seniors had very fine wool, trade name "Mosstread" and the juniors had something resembling mohair. If I had to guess, I'd say 51 and up had loop pile.

What model were you inquiring about? There are enough cars around with original interiors that the answer should be easy enough to establish.
