Looking to order a new carpet set for my 72 and was wondering if anyone had any experiences with both Brothers and Classic Industries 80/20 carpet kits. I know lots of times the retailers are selling the same product, didn't know if this was one of those instances. I ask because Brothers is $25 cheaper, but if it's a lesser product, then that's a small difference to pay for a higher quality carpet. Just looking for some input/experiences that people may have had in the past. Or, if there is another vendor that I should be looking at, please let me know. Thanks in advance!

Re: Brothers v. Classic v. Anyone else's carpet?
I'm pretty sure that's the brand that Classic Industries sells. I'll give Brothers a call later and see who their carpet supplier is.

We're a dealer for ACC carpets. If are looking for a carpet in a color other than black I can send you out some free color samples too if you would like.
Here's a link to them on our website. Chevy Truck Carpet |

Re: Brothers v. Classic v. Anyone else's carpet?
ACC supplies the carpet kits for all Classic Industries vehicles (truck, Camaros, Novas, etc.)
In fact, ACC is the supplier to most all restoration companies. I've used ACC on numbers vehicles and the quality and fit is good. A few months ago I installed a new ACC kit (from Classic) in my 1971 C10 and it fit great. My only suggestion is to install aftermarket sound deadener insulation beneath the carpet at it: cuts down on noise, cuts down on heat, and gives a bit of added padding. |

Re: Brothers v. Classic v. Anyone else's carpet?
Hello, just ask if the carpet is from Auto Custom Carpets. This is by far the superior product. You might check with Outback Truck Parts. I know they will be at the Fort Worth Swap meet this weekend. I bet they will bring you one and save you the shipping cost.

shiner2001,
I just noticed (and got a laugh out of) your avatar. Unfortunately, that image is a very common one for my '71. |

Re: Brothers v. Classic v. Anyone else's carpet?
After stopping at the parts store to buy an air cleaner, that was the next stop when I bought the truck about a month ago...
