Thank you!!

I was told it was not original, and when it was taken apart several years ago, the carpet was thrown away.

The first photo of the red car's front carpet shows that there is a separate piece above/in-front-of the main carpet. A narrow band that runs the width of the car.

I made a new post the other day requesting to see photos of how the carpet was laid in the front of a 1955 Caribbean, as I am getting ready to re-do the carpet in ours (same color as your car). Could you take a few close-up photos of the front carpet in your car, please, and another photo showing the weave of the carpet as well?
Thanks.

thank you

We are finishing up the assembly of our 1955 Caribbean, and would like to have some photos showing how the carpet is supposed to be fitted in the front cabin. Is there a separate piece in front of the transmission tunnel? How is the binding supposed to look?

Not "dual cowl"... just a rear windshield accessory.

Well... that's an extremely rare one. I'm surprised that the seller didn't identify it as a Sport model.

I don't think you can just throw in a Packard straight eight into a car that started as a six. There's a difference in length of the chassis between the cowl and the front. Am I wrong?
