Can anyone recommend somewhere where I can buy the original style "carpet" for my 67 basic beetle. I want to return it to original condition and all that is missing now is the "carpet" and some paint to spray the inside door handles & window winders. Back to the "carpet", it is not really carpet but a sort of rubberised bobbly material that tries to emulate a rough twist pile carpet. Any advice gratefully received. Thanks Jon

Hi, Welcome to the forum. We've got a set from [url=https://www.newtoncomm.co.uk/index.jsp]Newton Commercial[/url] for the '60 restoration we're working on and they're about as close as you're going to get to the original pattern. Still looking for a set of RHD 1960 rubber floor mats to go with the carpet though! :roll: six-o-one

Thanks, I will contact them for some samples. Having posted the original question I thought I might get lucky on the second hand market.... The hunt is on. Jon
