Default Urraco Carpet

Thanks JRV!!

I took a quick look at the GAHH site. I didn't see Lambo listed at all under carpet kits, did see it under leather seats, but the Urraco is not listed. I'll contact them and see what they have to say - thanks again!!

Brenton - GAHH does list carpet under raw materials. You might also try re-originals at: http://www.reoriginals.com. Their site seems to be having a few problems at the moment (content not connection) - you can contact them at 713-849-2400. They are located in Houston. I know they used to sell raw carpet for our cars. They reproduce a lot of other stuff you might not expect - for example wiper arms ...

W+W - that's Brenton w/ the lime green Urraco (and you as well :-) ). My P250 is yellow. I've seen a P250 in lime - IMO it really works in an early 70s Lambo way (which is pretty nice!!). Though (IMO) nothing beats the Miuras in some of those wild colors ... I am having fun w/ my car!! Shoot me an email address if you can't see the attachment and I'll send it direct. Love to see pics of your car as well!!!

In the meantime - any advice on replacing carpets? I have an image in my mind of getting close and then making that crucial cut a little too generous. I assume you pulled all of your originals and used them as a pattern? How about basics like seat removal (I admit I haven't looked ...), backing material (is sound deadening at all worthwile?), adhesive, special tools, carpet source and of course any of the infamous gotchas. Thanks!!!
