I was preparing for my body removal, and was removing my seats and carpet.

I was surprised to find a well padded burlap type material underlayment. I would like to find this material again if any body out there knows what it is, and where I can find it.

Also, Where is the best place to purchase 63 coupe "fitted carpet kits", (complete set, back roof and all). The good ones with bound edges etc.?

Thanks Mike S. :usaribbon

As far as where to get restoration parts, GM has a great booklet called "Hobby & Sales Chevrolet Group, Past Model Information", which has 46 pages of vendors and and suppliers of parts for restorers. Call GM's customer assistance center and talk to Tina Wells, her direct line is (866) 942-4368 Ext. 48950. She'll send you the booklet. Tell her FatherLarry sent you.

Also, talk to Corvette club members in your area. They may be able to give you some leads as to where to find kits. There are so many good vendors out there to choose from. One of them is
Corvette America.
