I have a 1927 2 door sedan that a buddy has asked me to put in a Hampton coach interior. He asked me about the carpet in it and I'm not sure but didn't it have a rubber mat?

It should have a rubber floor mat in the front and carpet in the rear under the front to the back seat.


How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!

The rear carpet should be held in with snaps also. my 28 still has a couple of the snap bases still in it. My 21 490 has a couple in the rear area as well. I think they did that to keep them laying flat in the wind and to make them easy to remove to knock the dirt out since auto vacuums were a rarity back then.


28 Chevy LO Capitol 1 ton, 28 National 2 dr coach, 71 Chevy Custom Camper 3/4 ton. Also 23 Oldsmobile Economy truck and a 24 Olds sport touring.
