Hello,

Does anyone know where I can get a carpet for a c3 (1980) ??

I was looking for one for a while and still no luck.

Adam...Do you want precut stuff like the make for ordinary cars or someone to make you some hand fitted carpet? If it's the latter then ask my son....he's an auto upholsterer. You should see the carpet he did for his own car. Very nice job.
My "new" Recaro's will be next on the list.

Adam,

I'd go with hand made as they generally have a better finish, but if you want pre cut stuff you can lay yourself, there's an add in this issue of Unique Cars where a guy advertises carpets for Corvette's. I don't have my copy here so I can't give you the name but i can forward to you tomorrow.

Brutus=> You should post your son's name, phone and company details in the tech pages. This is just the thing Our pres wants to collate and place in a directory of services we can offer to forum and club members. Networking is where it's at my friend ...

Yeh, thanks guys. I would never doubt a hand made is better my only issue is cost. Its not that im cheap and dont want to spend the money, its just i dont have the money to spend.

Rebel...My son is still an appretice and would have to do this in his spare time, but he has to start somewhere I guess. His work is quite good which reflects his top of the class placing for last year at Tech.

Brutus, I've given plenty of young people a start ... 19yr old into modelling, photographer on his first shoot etc ... if your son has proven potential, there's always someone who'd be willing to pay a lower rate and give him a go. There's no shame in being a student, learning = growing and we should never stop growing .... If interested, send me his details and brief resume and we'll see how we go. (rebel@ement.com)

thanx ..

Rebel...Thanks for the offer, but he's pretty happy where he's working right now. I'm just trying to get him some work on the side so he can get some more experience as well as paying me back the few $$$ he owes. ;ay
