Well, so much for the carpet idea, he has been yapping about Rhino lining the floors, so I bought him rims for his birthday instead. Just some cheapy 8x15 black steel jobs. He will be happy though.

Oh No No No No. I wasn't being sarcastic!
I really liked that saying..
That rates up there with things like "Turn it till it's tight then give it one more turn"!!!. Or how about this one? "How much torque should I put on them wheel nutz? Oh just put a little pig torque on it! Pig torque? Yeah just turn it till it squeels"

Ok I better quit before I get in trouble for discussion in the tech forum.

However just to make this legal My tech part is Yes I am rebuilding, building,and modifying up the Kazoo. I just can't seem to keep my head above water getting another project after another pushed in front of the B2. Wife asked if she could plant flowers in it!!!!! Grrrrrrrrrr.

Oh, OK ... I read your " blue paint " post and thought you were on a roll. I didn't mean to highjack the thread, it's just that I didn't want to start a new one about carpet. I'm looking for some advice on the different suppliers and figured someone in this forum had some words of wisdom.

Yep, he liked the tires and new rims, much more than new carpet.

I'm kind of envious, I'm really starting like this little Bronco pile.

Now he needs a blue drive line. :D

No problems.

I recently bought new carpet for the Mustang from Hell. I bought it through 5.0 Resto. I haven't put it in yet but looking it over it seems to be just like stock.

I had been looking at just carpet for the mustang and it seemed that the price for good or OEM carpet was about the same give or take a bit across the board. I picked 5.0Resto cause I bought everything else through them.

I like to buy from the same company if I am buying multiple parts as part of a whole. Did that make sense? I figured it would be my best chance of matching all the colors together. I carry that through to other items also. If I build a motor, all the bearings (Rod, Mains, Cam) were the same manufacture. I only use certain oil pumps and always the same brand timing chain.

I don't know how this relates to auto carpet however I was just citing by example..
