NOS Rubber floor mat source?

Looking for a source that may have these available.

I ordered some custom Lloyd's Mats, but between the four layers of sound deadener and the kick panel speaker pods, there is no way those are going to fit.

Been checking ebay, but no luck.

Yo! I think this is the rubber flooring I put in FRANKENTRUCK:
http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cc/full.aspx?Page=110
part number 38-2835. You'd need 38-2836.
It's perfect! When it went in:

It had sufficient extra to trim and fits quite nicely. Covers halfway up firewall to rear edge of shelf behind the seat and to each door threshold without any trouble. Good, heavy, rubber-like compound.
I backed mine with 1/4" foil backed wool,...but not really necessary. It has 1/8" felt backing.
Todd.

Hey Todd, thanks bud!

Really what I'm looking for, are the rubber floor mats, the square (thin) ones that I can put on top of my carpet.

Re: NOS Rubber floor mat source?

Those mats are a lot heavier than stock. I had stock vinyl on my 76, and on a new 2000 Silverado, and they are too thin - wear too quickly on the driver's side. Put floor mats on the stock vinyl and the mats slip around. I am having a local upholsterer do the carpet in my 83, but then I am covering the carpet with Huskyliners, plus using black treadmill mat to cover the hump and the threshold area under the seat sides, which wear quickly. So, the entire floor will be black rubber/vinyl except under the seats. I put Huskyliners in all my vehicles because they have sides which catch dirt and liquids on the floor and you can dump them out like a big pan.
