Re: 1955 Packard 400

I bought carpet set for my Carribean from a guy who sells stainless steel brake lines - mostly for Corvettes. He also makes the lines for the Packard and they are the best parts I found in 4 years. Perfect fit.
Anyhow. He was restoring a Caribbean and discovered that no one offered carpet of the correct material and pile. Went to a carpet company to get the correct carpet produced but they would only make up a batch of something like a thousand square yards. Surprisingly, he ordered it and had the carpet dyed to various colors. Not sure if he has your color, but he had correct green for mine. Has an upholsterer that makes up the carpet sets if you don't have someone to do it.
I'll have to check my paperwork for the address.
Nice guy to deal,with. I think the cost was about 25% more than I was quoted for replacement set elsewhere .
