I spent all this time getting the floor pan to bare metal, fixing rust area, removing seam sealer and POr15'ing the entire deck now it's time to add carpet and sound proofing and I feel I'm going to cover up all my hard work?
Should I use the dynamat type stuff and go with the original tar stuff? If I add sound deading material behind the seat will the back pad fit? Did everyone else just glue their carpet down? Getting the old stuff off was a bigger pain than cutting welding the rust patches. Looking to see what you folks have done. Thank! |

use new products like dynomat or similar. Don't put the old tar back on. It was a product of the 60's. 40-50 years later, we have better stuff. There was a oem heavy rubber sheet behind the backpad so you will have room to put new material there. Make templates for everything, see how it looks and then cut the material to shape.
