The clips for the seat bottom are at the front. Push down on the front of the seat at the front, and push hard toward the rear at the same time. The clips are welded to the floor and are notched, and face toward the rear of the car. You will have to do it at both sides. The seat back is held...

I found this tag attached to the bottom of the front carpet when I took it out. Date stamp (MAR 26 1965) is three days before the car was assembled.

I agree, but red was all I had lying around. I'll put a tan one on it someday. It is on there because I didn't want the sun to crack my nice old deluxe transparent gold steering wheel, but then the cover kind of defeats the purpose when you can't even see the wheel. :yuk:

It does brighten it up. I like matching or coordinated colored carpets a lot better than the same old black or grey that seems to be the norm today.

Original was little bit darker. The color samples were this and a darker tan, almost brown. I decided this was closer to original and liked it better. There are more color choices for modern pile carpets, but not so much for loop weave.

DONE. Just need to put the seat belts back through the seat.

Maybe some old guy that worked the line carried a pocket full around and dropped a few in every car. I'd have done something like that. :busted: We were tearing a Pontiac apart once and found a guy's initials and the date written on the side of the cowl. I always wondered how many cars he signed.

They still are around here. Knowing my family and Michigan like I do, I would say they are there too..

Old cars don't have cup holders.. I am too used to my cup of coffee:3gears:

From These guys. Very nice carpet. The padding is about a third the thickness of the original but for 159 shipped, it is worth it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/351003473118?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

Cleaned up and ready to install.Most of the tabs had to be straightened up again. The accel pedal welt back in pretty easily. Had to quit for the night, so this is as far as I got today..

Treasures from under the carpet

Replacing the carpet. I knew the car was in amazing condition for 50 years old, but I was not expecting the floors to be this rust free! Everything came apart very easily, no problems at all with seat and accelerator bolts. Tired old Carpet. 50 years of Dakota and Colorado dust under the door...

It is not a problem, just a little surface rust that always happens on bare metal. I would just leave it alone. You don't want to do anything to harm the foam or cover.

A state might not compel you to install restraint devices in your vehicle, but they can legislate that no passengers under a certain age be transported in that vehicle unless secured in an approved restraint device... That is basically saying if you don't want seatbelts, fine.. If you want to...

I would bet that the 70 hardtop version would be the same, or pretty close. The difference in screws was probably made up with side and rear window trim.

With a black or white car it's perfect. Reminds me of the interior colors in the forward look cars.

Those look just like the headrests that were in my 69 300 with lowback buckets. It came with two bucket seats plus a seperate center section in the middle that folded down into an armrest. I wish I had a picture to show you, but ufortunately, that was many years ago and I can't find any...
