Sorry to beat a dead horse here, but I didn't save the e-mail from many months ago which described the particular type of carpet that the '59 Imperial came with. It wasn't loop pile or cut pile, I don't think.
My '59's black carpet must be replaced. In many places there's no nap left at all. How feasible would it be to use late 1970s Lincoln carpeting? I think I can get that through Original Auto Interiors in Michigan. I realize that molded carpet for a '79 Town Car wouldn't correspond to a '59 Crown 4-door, and that I'd have welting or seams along the edges. It does, though, have a similar deep pile that would be close to the pristine original carpet I have on the back of the front seat, more so than the loop/cut pile that Mopar used in the 60s. Any thoughts?
