Can anyone advise me about my carpet.  I have a 64 CDV with midnight blue carpet.  It appears to be original and when I look at suppliers carpet kits they are a loop pile.  My appearently original carpet looks more like a plush type pile.  Can anyone tell me what the correct carpet should be, and any recommendations of a good suppier for carpet kits  Thanks Kevin in Tampa

All the details regarding original cut and material used for carpet is posted in Carpet link on help page. Carpets used were different between model years and body styles. For example in 1964 Coupe DeVilles had cut pile, however, 62 Series Coupes had loop pile ... Regardless of options.

Most of them have the carpet tag under the front section. They are pretty cool as they have part #, color code, body styles and date code. Here is the one from the 64 Convertible I just parted out:

The 1964 originally came with Tremont quality, rayon-nylon, cut pile. In 1964 the 62 series came with the loop pile.

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?

My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.

Many thanks,

-Samu

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
