'73 98 Carpet Choice
Redoing the carpet in my 73 98. It has already been replaced once (I think) with cut pile, but wondering if the original stock was loop or cut pile? Fusick shows the '73 with loop, but wondering if anyone else has a perspective.

The other big supplier (which may supply SAI above) is Auto Custom Carpets in Alabama or Arkansas or near there. The odds are that one of these made the carpet sold by Fusick, so you may as well go to the source and skip the middleman.
Your car originally had loop, not cut pile.
Mine has red indoor / outdoor pieced together and glued in place by the PO.

When I went to put new carpet in my '73 Custom Cruiser, I bought it from Vark Motors. The carpet fit fine, I think it looks great, and I've been very happy with it. I liked buying from this place because I was in Ohio at the time and the company is Ohio-based. It is the loop style.
Order before the end of the month, and you can get free shipping.

Below are a couple of photos of the result. I installed it myself.

Did the replacement carpet you bought for your wagon include enough to cover behind the second seat up to the differential? The places I've contacted only sell enough for a sedan. You have to buy extra carpet--and I'm assuming, fit it yourself--for the flooring that reaches the third seat. Let me know. Thanks.

I took those extra yards of carpet along with the originals of what was behind the second seat, which I was able to remove cleanly and completely, to an auto upholstery shop, and they cut and sewed the new carpet to match the old pieces.
