The last charcoal carpet set is spoken for by @Juggernaught (yes another set for him, possibly)
Vinyl still shows shipped per my tracking.

My charcoal set arrived from Trail Taylor a week ago and I was finally able to take it out of the box over the weekend. This carpet is as good as anyone is ever going to make for these old trucks. Jason has done a lot of research to find us the best possible option on the planet (literally). I'm ridiculously picky about the parts I put on my Cruisers and this carpet is good enough that I bought a second set for a distant future restoration on a pristine 62 I call Ugly Betty.
It really looks nice and is much thicker than the set I bought for Frankie; made by a different Australian manufacturer. I intend to replace Frankie's CCOT set with Jason's TT and my DD Lilly will get the 'hand-me-downs'. I haven't installed it yet (it could be months) but the molding looks right compared to the others I've handled. It looks like it will fit the post '85 better than the pre '85. It is a (very, very) slightly different grey, more true charcoal and without the bluish hints of OEM. But it is a solid color and not the heather, multi-color pattern I found for Frankie. I can't imagine finding anything closer.
IMHO - If you intend to replace your 60's carpet, now or in the foreseeable future, this is the time to set up another group buy with Trail Tailor.

I received a set in brown and it looks to be very well made. It will be a bit before install as the truck still needs to go through body and paint first. Thanks again to Jason for tracking these and other 60/62 products down for us.
This is the future for 60/62 owners, more and more parts will have to be reproduced by after market companies. If we do not support them, they will find greener pastures. I personally love these trucks and plan to be playing with them well into the future. Keep up the good work Jason.

Thanks guys,
I looked for almost 2 years for a good replacement to stock. I have over 500 emails between several companies (US, Mexico, Japan and AU) and about 200 carpet swatches. No one in the US makes a molded version, just cut and sewn. You all know of that debacle with a local upholsterer. I had seen the CCOT and the JT Outfitters kit in others vehicles and just knew there was something better out there.
I have a couple sets of exact fit floor mats coming with this new order as well that are color matched. So, if I like them, they will be offered as well.
I hope to have my brown set installed this weekend so that will give everyone a good look at these.
Thanks again,
Jason

The ones coming in are for the 60 series. The 62 series have the foot cut out. Currently all are spoken for. But, easy enough to add when I make another order.

C, You want carpet or vinyl mats? Not sure if they make vinyl mats. I will inquire for you though. Per tracking the order (9 packages-231kg) will be in CA-LAX on Saturday.
