Does anyone know of a company that provides new carpet kits for 240's? I have an 82 245 that I'd like to freshen up with new carpet, if not too costly. Otherwise, I'm back to the previously owned parts store. thanks to all. JRB

What color is the carpet? I had a 1983 245GL with really messed up carpet. I bought front and back from a recycle yard and went to the U-Squirt-Em car wash.

There was a rack on the wal for floor mats and it held the carpet OK. Lots of low pressure wash, high pressure wash, etc, and the grease all came out. Looted like new, almost. Did front and rear separate.

Brought them home in the cargo space and hung-em on a fence for a week to dry.

I now have a 1979 245 that will be leaving soon. It has chocolate brown carpets. Are you interested? Lemme know.

Regards,

Bob

thanks for your reply, my car has the "Tan" color. Good suggestion about the car wash, though.

jrbenny,

I don't have any experience with any of these companies, so I can't say for sure but these look interesting...
