hey folks, quick dumb question? where can i get a nice front trunk carpet for my 72 SB? im also looking for one piece windows, and i would like to find bumpers, but i think the stock 72's are ugly. can i put pre 69 bumpers on her? main thing im trying to get right now is the carpet? any suggestions?

interior stuff I haven't looked for, one piese glas the kit runs around 100 bucks if I remember right and the early pre 70 bumpers fit no prob

hard to come by the bumpers? seems when i see them in the classified section people want like 500 bucks for just one bumper.

200 for a pair complete brackets and gaurds seems to be the norm... at least on this side of the world....

ISP West has a very nice front trunk liner - fit my '65 Notch perfect. Not sure about later years, but give them a try. Price was very reasonable and shipment arrived in good condition.

You might try jbugs as well for the carpet. I bought a interior kit from them awhile ago but I think that particular piece is sold se[parately if they carry it

I can't beleive how many posts went by without anyone saying this...

one peice windows SUCK. they leak, rattle, and require you to butcher the doors beyond repair. just say no.

oh idid not know that i would have to hack the doors. screw that the vent windows are fine then. im just getting pissed at my windows. i cannot figure out why they will not roll up or down! i replaced the regulators but the dam windows feel like they are too tight when i go to roll them up or down. i dunno, its just one of those annoying problems,

WD40 or Silicone Spray in the window channels and the regulators should help, especially if they have NEW window channels!
