Replacement Avanti Carpet- Anyone used Newark

[Red350DropTop]

I just picked up a 71 Avanti II and want to replace the carpet. I had originally looked at some of the Newark Carpet sold on eBay for my 63 R2 but never ordered any as I wanted to get the correct salt and pepper carpet for it when the time came.

For my Avanti II this black carpet would work great. Any reviews on the car kit or the trunk kit? It seems to be very cost effective but if it is poorly cut or made I would happily move along to another vendor.

I purchased the carpet from Newark to replace the carpet in my 1964 Avanti. Ben does a pretty good job, but I did need to cut, trim and sew a couple of pieces. The biggest problem that I had with the Newark carpet kit was that he used a pattern from a 1963 Avanti. If you instruct Ben to cut and sew the front carpet like he did for Robert Sylvester (Me), you will get a pretty decent kit to install with few problems. I will use him again!
