Maybe this does belong in another forum but apparently it has all of the na sayers of this product all up in arms over someone trying to bring a better product to the hobby so maybe all the vender's should stop trying to improve existing products or developing new one's. Me for one welcome anybody trying to help the progress of this hobby and so should ever one hoping for the parts there in need of will be produced in the future. If your one for bashing any new products unless you have first hand experience of a product then you should stay out of this topic so your blood pressure doesn't boil With all the hits this topic has maybe it is in the right place

I may have missed this in this post so sorry if this has already been stated.
Is this carpet ready to hit the market. I will be ordering a carpet by the end of the week. This is a gift for my fathers 69 coronet ragtop. I would just soon try this and let my fathers car be the test mule. What is the price on this carpet??
Thank You,

Reid

Call Showtime Restorations 704-445-2555 ask for Bill he'll know.

Thank you,

I ordered a carpet from them a week of so ago.
There is an answering machine now.

I ordered 1 week ago, number I have is for Motor Parts South (704-435-2692), also talked to Bill (not sure if the same Bill), always got a live person and very helpful.

Does anyone know if the e-body carpet is ready to ship or are they still working out the final details??

I ordered carpet from them about 2 months ago and as of yet I have not heard back from them..71/72 RR carpet..I ordered it with Dynamat backing instead of Jute..Sounds like they are doing it right when I talked to them a while back..
I am just amazed at the way this thread took a turn for the worse in a hurry..
Who cares how its described..We finally have a guy trying to improve the quality of whats out there and people are waiting on the sidelines to tear it down for what???
Its embarrassing and a freakin shame..Grow up..

The carpet I ordered will be here Monday and we will be installing it in a coronet convertible shortly after. I will let you know how it comes out. I have tried ACC and Trim Parts carpets so I will give you my honest opinion.

James,
what's a shame is that the people that have carved up this thread will be the same ones
who will buy the better product once the word gets out that it is truly much better.
Hypocrisy runs rampant unfortunately.
Happy Holidays

first of all, Dave from ECS is one of the nicest,most generious helpful vendors i have ever met. he tries very hard to improve the hobby and make correct products, i would support him with all his products thats why i am waiting to get a new black carpet for my 65 dodge coronet. if you have ever talked to him on the phone you know what i mean. please stop bashing him and his efforts, he is truly a asset to this hobby.

AMEN: I agree:

I second that.

I third that Jules, most of the people that have been barking about this carpet thread for weeks now have NO clue most of the time what headaches we, the people who are putting the $$$$ and time out there go through to put out a well needed part to help this hobby. They don't seem to realize that even after you've finally accepted the fifth prototype or sample that once it goes into production it could STILL go wrong down the line......thats when some of the bad ones make it to the customer and the bashing begins.People just go back about 20 years when there was no, PG Classics, no Jules, no ECS, no R/T specialties or Roger Gibson and such......who do you turn to then for you parts ? Please understand we're doing this for you, we're trying or damdest to GET IT RIGHT, and hopefully we'll make a little profit to eventually cover our loses.... in the meantime please just return the parts that don't fit or work, most suppliers will gladly replace them for you, tell us whats wrong with the part and we'll take the nessesary steps to correct the problem............but for now please stop biting the hand that feeds you.

Later, BUZZ

Well put Bob.
Happy Holidays

No we have not installed the carpet yet. We did do a quick test fit Christmas morning and it appeared to fit very well. The loops feel very tight and until it has some wear and tear it will be hard to tell how it holds up.

To lengthy so I shorted the story.
Just make sure you are explicit when ordering if you want the jute attached or not attached.
