1965 Dodge Dart Charger

Mr2.4 First of let tell you how much I enjoy coming home from work on a daily basis and checking your thread for updates. This is hands down my absolute favorite build on here. Now a thought for you. That carpet tape. Have you tried checking with home carpet installers? I know that sometimes they have you put carpets together in odd places. Keep up the great work!

Thanks for the kind Words Mr2.4. I will check into the home carpet installers.

chryslerfat I know that carpet installers use a similar tape for seams. The seat belt bolts were not installed if it came without so no seat belts equals no holes.

Thanks chryslerfat! I will check into thecarpet installers tape.

slantsixdan One trick worth keeping in mind for the small holes for kickplate screws and other small screws: heat up a nail and melt a hole through the carpet for the screw. If you just drill/drive the screw through the carpet, you risk pulling a "run" (straight line of fibre pulled out of the carpet weave).

Thanks Dan! That was a great trick.Iknow from drilling that it does not work well!!:banghead:

After some thoughts I was thinking of reusing the old insulation. It was probably 1" thick compared to the aftermarket 3/8"! I carefully took the old insulation off and layed it down on the floor. It both got way much quieter and way much more softer. Compare the old insulation to the new one!!! Some guy did a not so good job!

I cut the sides on the rear carpet so now it's time to add the extensions on each side.

I also checked the front carpet and it seems that it's in correct lenght. Yipii!
