New Carpeting in the Burb
I finished up (almost) installing new carpeting in the Burb. Much nicer than the old original cracked rubber matting. I have to find some strips yet. I also picked up a never used gas tank for $35 off craig's list for when I need it.

Re: New Carpeting in the Burb
Looks great!
I should have went with that color... (long story) I like what I saw what you have for your seat cover, can you post pictures of your bench seat for us? What year cover is that? did you buy it pre-made, or did you have it done? I am interested in seeing how the back of the seat back was done, and the seating surfaces. I need to do my seat covers bad, but I have yet to find a 68 burb seat cover set yet for all three benches. I've been debating on having all three made, since I can get the material now that I like and is correct for 68. But am unsure of the how they would turn out. I just recovered all of my inner side panels, and they came out pretty good for someone like me that has never done that kind of work before.

Re: New Carpeting in the Burb
I'll try to take some photos of the seat tomorrow. It was in the Burb when I bought it.

Re: New Carpeting in the Burb
I got it from StockInteriors.com. It was pretty reasonable at $350 with shipping for the complete kit which included the front, back, cargo area, wheel wells and filler cover. It is the standard ACC 80/20 Loop which everybody seems to sell. It looks better that it really is, but it fit well. I don't know how it would hold up to heavy daily use, but it doesn't get that kind of use, so I guess it will be okay. Certainly better than the old cracked matting and bare wood.
